People put different valve covers on strictly for looks 99% of the time.

1964 GTO heads would be unlikely candidates for screw-in studs, roller rockers and a stud girdle thereby requiring tall valve covers at least in my mind.

I have roller rockers and screw-in studs on my 1964 GTO heads with stock valve covers and a slightly thicker 5/16” gasket and that’s it. The vast majority of 1964 GTOs have just the original press-in rocker studs and original stamped steel 1.5:1 rockers you can bet.

About Us

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
