It all depends on what valve covers you have. There are 3 roller 302 stock valve covers out there and they are all different. The stamp steel ones are the worst and will not clear any roller rockers. They are provide the least valve train sound deadening since they are so thin. Next would be the 1985 and I think older aluminum finned valve covers. They are a great looking valve cover and will only clear rollers if you cut out the original oil baffles and stick in something thats closer to the top of the cover. Last would be the plain jane aluminums and they will clear. But on some of them you have to clearance some meat on the corners in the inside of the cover. Not sure which ones you have but I hope that helps.

I ran the scorpion 7/16 stud mounts with my stock 90lx covers. Had to grind out a little around oil baffle, that was it.

Well I have Crane 1.6 RR's in there (by the previous owner) and I have 93 valve covers?...what ever that means?...

The Scorpions look thicker and taller?...

Does anybody have the valve cover gasket kit...part number?

Thanks for the responses

I usually run the ford steel/rubber ones. Just go to a dealer and ask for a set for you're car. Mine didnt fit right with the AFR's, so I went with a cheapy cork one
