I ordered the gaskets and the roller rockers from Summit. Just check with the sales person and ask for the reusable gaskets. A correction on the material: I think they are neoprene. I thought I had the receipt with the part number but i must have misplaced it.

With stock cylinder head decks and block deck I didn't have problems with my 1.6:1 CC ProMag rockers hitting the top of the cover. The only person I have heard with this problem had decked heads and block and probably had different length valves and pushrods. Are there more people with this problem 
The biggest problem, at least with the ProMags, is the reinforcement webbing in the covers hit the trunions on the rockers. You can either cut the lip off of the supports or crush them with a vice grips where they pass by the rockers. If you need a little extra height you can also use cork, SBC, perimeter bolt valvecover gaskets. Just cut off the tabs and stuff into the stock covers.
