Default stock fox vc's, clear rr's?

the summit valve covers i ordered wont clear my holley, even with a 3/8 spacer.
and my friend said he'd trade me covers plus give me 20bucks(5 bucks short of what i paid for em) off his 87 5.0
will these clear my comp rr's?

i already got the extra thick gaskets, i thought i might need them for the summit vc's i ordered.
so would i need to do anything to the baffling to make it fit with extra thick gaskets then?
