I have just bought new chrome valve covers, for the 302 motor. I pulled off the old valve covers last night. I do have scorpion roller rockers installed . And the clearance was very tight. I was wondering if i would have a problem width wise with the rockers hitting the side of the valve cover and or if ill have a problem with the rockers hitting the top of the valve cover.? The valve covers are for a 302. Maybe i have to buy bigger ones? thanks

rockers should never hit the side. maybe the top if anything. what valve covers did you buy?

 

maybe twisted valve covers? yeah they shouldnt hit the side...

They CANNOT be run with aftermarket roller rockers
