Why would you prefer the alloy one? You’d likely have to add a baffle, and they are typically heavier without judicious milling. The one you have is fine - just extract the orifice and you’re good.

>> So, those of you leaning towards performance or competition applications ,  which tin valve cover would be a preference?   I have a few 948 type covers for the metal oil fill cap and no breather tube.  So early or late valve cover , early ( metal) or late ( plastic) oil fill cap and with or without a breather tube coming out of the cover?   Preferences or reasons to use or avoid a certain cover??
