Question about double roller timing on LT1

I have a 383 LT1 which I'm putting the Rollmaster billet double roller timing set and CSI electric wp on and I want to know if there are any clearance issues betwen the timing cover and the timing chain/gears etc that I should look out for.

Also the CSI pump came with one plug does this go into the wp or the timing cover? And which ever one it fits what do you do about the other hole to fill?

Some covers need trimming, others don't. Test fit the cover before installing, if there is any clearancing to be done it shouldn't take long with a die grinder.

The plug that the CSI comes with is installed in the waterpump housing. I picked up a freeze plug that fit the timing cover. Actually I think I used a freeze plug for a Chrysler smallblock that needed some trimming and a little bit of its OD removed. I applied a little RTV before tapping it in place as well.
