Nice looking valve covers, do they have baffles for the crankcase vent system? Who sells these, Underground? The polished coil mounts looks super.

Those look incredible! Have you had any leaking problems with them at the gaskets?

Sweet ... but I sceered to hear the damage.

The damage was related specifically to my setup. The valve covers were on the car for about a year, no issues. When I redid the car so I could spin the engine to 7,500 rpm, the jesel valvetrain required a valve cover spacer. When the v/c were reinstalled the higher tq value for the longer bolts cracked a part of the cover. Some billet washers/sleeves fixed that issue
