Make an obscure bubble, or dome over the area that hits tight now. I'll hammer one out and smooth it on the english wheel for you if you want to go that route.

its only the front of the valve cover, thats it, kind of hard to make look good.was thinking of using the stock toyota bubble and widening and lifting it a bit.

the 20r valve cover is slanted in the front. You might not have to make such a large bubble if you use it.

Thats a good point Kyle. I have 3 of them Josh.And you could modify the cap mount to get it lower as well.
