A hole saw and grommet will fix the breather hose problem.

I'd clarify that or ask when they will have the covers with the above. Non LT1 cernter bolt w/filler. 65-205 - SBC CENTERBOLT FABBED ALUM VALVE COVERS W/ FILL & PCV (65-205) BTW Canton does make high quality stuff, a lot of racers use their products.

Canton does make gaskets, they have a one piece for LT1s. I figured it probably has something like the old still gasket and not the groove like my '96 has. I'll try on Monday just to see if they're there. I can always return them if I smell a rat. I really hope they'll work because as you probably know decent covers are few and far between for our Vettes. Besides, they'll look great on those AFR's

A hole saw and grommet will fix the breather hose problem. I was thinking more about clearance. Got ya. I'll just have to wait and see on that one. Other than the alternator I'm hoping there isn't a problem with clearance. I don't believe the wiper motor comes into play on the '96 but I may be wrong on that. We'll see.

The Cantons appear to have enough of a notch for the alternator bracket.

Exactly, the Cantons that I ordered have what looks like the same modification Will did to the Morosos done to them. Unless I'm missing something.........

Senior Guru 446 Posts Member since: 2008/9/16 9:08	I do have a question about the breather hole in the drivers side cover. If I put a breather in there is it going to help with the PCV system or hinder it? Seems to me it would help with the suction from the tb on the other side of the engine.
