OK here is my situation. I have AFR 185/61cc/stud. I have a Performer RPM 1 with a 3/8 spacer

I also have this camshaft from Probe:

Part # Int Exh Int Exh Int Exh Center
11503 .509 .532 300 309 222 232 112

And I have these rockers from Probe:

RATIO STUD SIZE OFFSET PART NUMBER
1.6 7/16 Standard 11274

These are my current valve covers:

These are the valve covers I want:
FMS-M-6000-J302R

These are some pretty covers as well:
FMS-M-6000-K302R

With all the information I provided does it look like I would be able to swap covers with no problem?

Or if there is a problem can I still make the covers that I want fit with proper massage?

i dunno, but i can say this:

i have afr heads (205s) and comp pro magnum rockers. my stock valve covers fit over them.

i think the afr heads have fairly high ridges that the valve covers sit on.

grady has afr 165s and his rockers fit under fox body valve covers.
 
I guess by you saying RPM 1 that is the same upper I got ... the first one
Edelbrock released :shrug:

I run Scorpion stud rr's which are pretty big :)

I run Fox covers and NO spacer :D

I could not say about any of those pretty VC's for sure :shrug:

I was satisfied with the plain Fox VC's as you can't see much of them
anyway by the time you get everything bolted on the motor :)

I agree with grady...if you had a carbed setup it would be a different story....THeres really not much to look at or read once there on the car. I'd say stick with your chrome ones. But, if you must, I would think they would fit. Just ask call and ask FRPP if there meant to fit around RR's if it doesnt say so in the info.
 
i couldn't help but to notice that your running a meth injection on a N/A motor. I've never seen that before and was just wondering if you were able to get any significant power gains from it?

I have the MSD timing advance control box so I advance my timing like 10 degrees and hit the meth. the meth lets me kill any possible ping and run super advanced timing :)
