David, in case you have not yet bought your covers, you might consider what I did. Speedway has stamped steel covers that come with two filler/vent tubes on one and none on the other. I bought two pair and used the ones with the vents, sold the non vented ones at a swap meet. The tubes are not as tall as original and do not have the gusseting reinforcement as I think the originals had, but I think they look good and do a good job. I did weld 3//8" nipples onto the rear tubes, to which I use a PCV valve Tee'd into both. I discovered that the pipe plugs on my Weber manifold were not for water temp sending units, but were a good 12" vacuum source. My 2¢ worth.
