I also removed the original oil filler blanked it off and put that cover on the drivers side as i'm sure it fouled the intake, and put a new filler on the passenger side but further forward of courseThe reason i spent so much time and effort trying to get reasonable looks and the least screwing around with components was basically bad advice, everyone kept saying stuff would fit with little or no proof with which to back it up.These have to be one of the worst cars ever to swap a set of valve covers on by a long way, buy a set off Paul and save all the hassle, even my Fox covers oil filler cleared the intake as below. <img src="http://i102.photobucket.com/albums/m117/95stang_2006/Bits/2008_0817Image0065.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></blockquote>
