Question

i am thinking of putting on roller tipped 1.6 rockers on my 350.
i have the stock 69 z/28 camaro aluminum valve covers with the oil drippers.
will the rockers fit under there??

if not what can i do to keep the stock covers??
thanks guys

oh ya.......
you guys think i'll see a big HP gain by doing this?
i have stock GM 2.02 slant plug heads,750 holly vacum sec.,z/28 intake, and a 480 lift/223 dur. cam.

If you have the factory thick aluminum covers, they might not fit! I just bought a set of the new "Chevrolet" aluminums and it says right on the box: "will not fit engines equipped with 1.6 rockers"!!

My stock '67 SS covers worked with a double thick gasket - and you can't tell when looking at them

but they don't have drippers inside - -
