LAFENATU wrote "The easiest way to do valve covers is look for 1994-1995 Cobra valve covers or Fox valve covers fit if you remove the baffle on the passanger side."

so are you saying this info is incorrect?

fox valve covers will hit the back of the alternator on an SN-95.... end of story.

as far as removing the baffles... go for it if you really want to. But you can get valve covers that DO fit for really cheap online.

fox valve covers did not work for my car, neither did my stock (cobra) valve covers

Yes they do. Just remove the baffle and grind in two small places.

and fox valve covers dont clear the alternator on an SN

I thought they did?

hmmm, i wonder if anything would clear with my s/c setup..... i would really like to get new 1.6 or 1.7 rockers for a quick power gain but i would hate to have the fitment issue pop up when its time to put everything back together

Well, I have stock fox valve covers on the motor I'm building for my notch with 1.6 roller rockers and they clear just fine - I just took out the baffle and ground them down in a couple spots. As far as the alternator fitment - I'm not sure and would need to check.

Im still using my factory valve covers and they clear fine with my 1.6 rr and my cam. I just put a double gasket and your set, there's no leaks either.
