Can anyone recommend valve covers that will fit our engines with 1.5 narrow roller rockers? It seems like the tall style won't fit b/c of the a/c brackets etc. I'm thinking that the inside may need to be gutted? I've been looking at GM and they are ~$200. I think a decent one can be had for less. Any thoughts?

P.S Got the HT383E in last week. Going to do initial start up this weekend! I'll give details with pics next week.

Are they full rollers or roller tips? My 1.5 Comp roller tipped ones fit under the stock valve covers. I did switch to the ProForm tall valve covers later on though. I just cut that ear of the AC bracket and used some 1/2" steel flat stock to space the compressor up a bit and tie it all back together

They are full rollers but the narrow version from Scorpion. I'll check the stock covers first.
Thanks
