Does anyone know what the drip rails are for on those factory aluminum LT-1 valve covers. I want to install a polished set on my LM-1 350. Will they fit the motor without a problem? Will I need special gaskets or bolts. Thanks to anyone who can help!

The "drippers" are there to channel oil spray so it "drips" directly onto the rocker pivot balls for additional lubrication. The '69 aluminum covers didn't have them, but the '70 covers did (identical externally). graemlins/thumbsup.gif
