I used 1” and 1.5” without washers
Ok valve covers here.
And they don’t fit. They are def taller but the baffle hits.
That’s with the baffle plate removed.
Looks like one of the bosses is hitting the poly lock. What to do here? @TOOLOW91 did you do anything to get yours to fit?

I like em a lot too. JUSt need to get them to fit now. The gasket adds maybe 1/8” so not off by much.

Good choice on the covers, hopefully you can get them to work. I know you were debating on the color, but the black and silver work well with everything. Looking good!

Well, reason I went this way is I may change the intake. I like the explorer intake, but for some reason I've really been digging a black '93 CObra setup.
SO down the line after this engine is running, I may swap back to the cobra intake.

I got the stock valve covers to fit on my RHS heads with the same Comp gold rockers by removing the baffles and grinding down
the mounting bosses.
Looks good !
the mounting bosses.
Looks good !
What about valve cover spacers?
Any higher and I need to lift the intake up with a bigger spacer. I’m already using a 3/8” spacer. Any more and I’ll hit my hood
I’m gonna hit it with the grinder
I wish I had an answer .Ok valve covers here.

You could try and trim in there but both sets of TW heads with the same Harland sharp rockers all cleared the valve covers On mine with the blue felpro gaskets. I think they actually sit flush even without a gasket too
Pretty sure grinding those bosses down will do the trick. Sucks to lose the baffle but I can deAl with that
