These are cast alum. with ribs. The letters and raised portions are not painted, the base portion is coated a black wrinkle finish. They came off of a early Mustang. I see no reason that they would have any problem with center risers but do not know for sure.

They are the same with the exception that the COBRA letters are solid instead of having the groove cut in them.

I had a set of these left over from my Mustang restoration days. Last year I put them on the 351 Indmar with center riser exhaust in my 87 Mastercraft. They do not interfere with the exhaust. However you have to fabricate a solution for your PVC if you have the style that fits into a rubber grommet in the valve cover. These valve covers have the fill tube on both sides instead of a fill tube on one side and the pvc grommet on the other.

I did exactly the same thing.
