Another DA rookie question

Does anyone know if the Front Cover for the 24Valve(Like in our Freightliner Rollback) will fit a 12Valve?If not,did anyone ever make a front cover for a Aircompressor equipped truck?Would love to simplify some onboard air like our Freightshaker has when I drop a Gen 2 12valve in my F350.

The stock Cummins air compressors I've seen take the place of the vacuum pump in the 5.9 application. Problem doing it on a Dodge is that there isn't enough room under the hood for the compressor.
Might be enough room with what you're doing though. If you need vacuum also then just use an electric Ford vacuum pump. They are under $100 and are longer lived than the mechanical Dodge vacuum pump.
