Narrow Body vs. Regular?
Or does it even matter?

Someone want to explain the difference, and pros and cons of both?

I assume you're talking about rocker arms, like Crane Gold Race. Normally, narrow body rockers are used with center bolt valve covers as the regular ones don't fit very well.

So with stock valve covers I should go with the regular ones?

thats Dependant on your heads. you either have provision for center mount or perimeter mount. If you have center mount now then then the narrow body ones would probably be best
