Why would you prefer the alloy one? You=E2=80=99d likely have to add a baffl=
e, and they are typically heavier without judicious milling. The one you hav=
e is fine - just extract the orifice and you=E2=80=99re good.=20

  which tin valve cover would be a preference?   I have a few 948 type cover=
