Ya my kb kind of makes valve cover clearance a pain, just wondering if anyone else has used these rockers with stock 94-95 valve covers, there the same rockers used on cobras but im not sure if cobra valve covers are taller.

My 1.6 Proforms would not fit (see sig) so I had to buy Crane 1.6's.. Almost positive that the 1.7's would not fit.
