plate glass is damn near the flatest thing you can possibly test things on to see if there flat, so go **** off your wife by holding your oily valve covers on a window large enough.
probally warped them with the powdercoating. 4.7 valve covers are pretty thin and powder coating requires some pretty good heat.
