    Chevy has the valve cover adapters you need but they are pricey. I think Street & Performance has them to. But I would try summit or Jegs first.

    As I recall, the Corvette valve covers do not have the fittings for a PCV valve, fresh air intake or oil filter. Problem. You will need an intake with an oil filler tube that will double as a fresh air intake. And you will need to plumb the PCV to a fitting welded to the oil filler tube or to a fitting tapped into the manifold.

    SoCal Speed Shop may have the intake you need. The one they have in their catalog is for the early heads but you can elongate the center holes to fit.

    Or, you can run Mooneyes valve covers, like mine, that come with the fittings. Not as cool, but a lot easier to set up. I have replaced the ugly rubber hoses with polished stainless steel tubing.

    You will like the Ravon body. First class stuff.
