Are both pretty much the same? Im planning on getting self aligning ones. Since I already have hardened pushrods, would it be wise to get non-self aligning with guides?

Will any of these fit under my stock valvecovers with no modifications?

i have a rocker setup for sale. rockers studs and guides for $230 shipped pic in the link
valve covers require very minor modifications (2min worth of work)

 

Im kind of iffy sticking used parts on my motor. Thanks for the offer though.

The GM sa rockers do fit under stock valve covers without modification.

 

I'm running the Crane self-aligning 1.6s and really like them. However, I haven't heard anything bad about the GMs. I'm not sure, but the GMs may be built by Crane.

Although first, you need to decide if you're going with NSA, or SA. Personally, I like the SA's on the LTs.

Im leaning towards the crane self aligning ones. Are they really loud compared to stock? Also, did u have to modify the valve covers?

I plan on getting fel-pro valve seals at autozone. What am I missing in this list? Is their stuff I don't need? I just wanna double check this and not mess anything up.

With the Crane narrow-body, self-aligning 1.6s your factory valve covers "will fit" without any modifications to the stock valve covers. The LT4 springs are also a great upgrade, then later if you add the Hot Cam, you're ready to go! Basically, that is what I did (rockers and springs) then hot can a few months later with some PCMforLess tuning. Everything worked well together, moved me from the mid 13s down into the 12s. A few more mods and I was in the 12.40s. Check out my 1997 Z28 auto at the link below.
