Clearance between the cowl body seam and the firewall under the wiper
motor are very tight, even to get off and on a stock steel valve cover.
Luckily I have 2 1974's with steel valve covers. A friend of mine had an
Aluminum valve cover installed on his 78 6 Cly. AMX that had a steel
valve cover and it looked like they masaged the above seam with a hammer
to get the clearance. Did you have to do that?

I replaced it with a aluminum valve cover kit, because the plastic
cover was 35 dollars and the gasket was 32 dollars where the
aluminum one cost 119 dollars and came with everything. I got my
cover from a off road store (jeeps used the same motors and stupid
plastic covers) Just type in amc plastic valve cover on a search
site and stuff will come up. I highly recomend the aluminum
conversion but it is up to you both are sold new.
