Max Wedge Experts

[Nick Tiberio <furyus63@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

When I bought my '64 Max Wedge it had fenderwell headers installed. The 
right side valve cover came of to adjust the valves no problem.

When I bought my '63 Max Wedge it had factory exhaust manifolds. I'm 
guessing the engine was painted 5 years ago and now the paint is 
blistering on the right valve cover between 4&6 cylinder by the exhaust 
manifold. 

As I was about to remove the valve cover I took a good look at it and 
stopped before I broke the gasket seal. That's a real tight fit between 
the intake and the exhaust manifolds. Will I be able to remove the valve 
cover without removing the exhaust manifold? Original engines had solid 
lifters needing adjustments so they must be able to be removed without 
removing the exhaust. Please, what's the trick.

Also this new mopar paint looks great but just does not stand up to 
heat. What is a better Max Wedge Orange to stand up to the heat.

Thank You,

Nick Tiberio
