my stock 302 has an e303 cam, afr 165's and stock 1.6rr. Would I have room to throw some 1.7roller rockers on them?

I dunno about the valve covers....I'm going to grind the baffles out of mine. I've also heard you can use 2 of the rubber gaskets on each side to add a little clearance. With the 1.7's and the E cam, you'll be a .529 lift...you should be okay, but it wouldn't hurt to clay it up for you own peace of mind.
