They are very nice & I love the look of the brushed fins but would have to pick the anodised finish if I was buying for the added protection + it's about time someone included the wire retainers!

I bet you haven't got a UK retailer selling these without a ridiculous mark-up yet though!

Very nice! $295 for the upper set, $325 for the lower if anyone is curious. I hope my valve covers stop weeping after I tried a new bolt sequence last week. Otherwise I will get these. It has the clips for the spark plug wires!

I've had the previous generation of these (both uppers and lowers) on my '91 C2 cab for over five years. They stopped a persistent oil leak and have held up great over more than 30k miles (no affiliation with the seller).

Any chance we can get a group buy going for these?

I put my order in already (I think I have leaky lower valve covers) and they are currently backordered but love the group buy idea. I was told a few weeks before they will be ready again.

I had mine oem ones machined which also seemed to have solved the leaking. It is a know issue that the valve covers warp, so what ever you do, they will never be tight without machining. Obviously we dont know if these ones are any better, but for what its worth, Reinz is a reputable company, supplying parts directly to the oem's.

All that effort and they still can not seem to put the ignition wire clips on!!! Do any aftermarket people do this simple thing right??

The bottoms have the clips, this is what is new and improved over the older version.
