They are a little taller than the factory 5.0 covers from our cars and can clear roller rockers.

Sorry,no pics. I was told and at one time saw, a pair of MN12 covers that were taller than ours stockers,although they look the same,it takes a third look before you actually see the height difference.

Vin I'll try to take a look tomorrow if I can get out to my yard after work. I know for a fact there's a MN-12 with a factory HO. I'll try to get a pic so you can tell me for sure if its what you're after.

arent you ever happy with what you have???  lol

I was,but I have another plan. It's because I went and swapped the intake. My fault,but I have to follow through.
