Roller rocker valve cover options......

Will be doing th RR install soon.
I am considering replacing the BLAH LT1 valve covers with somthing else.

What is available that will bolt up with little to none of clearancing for the roller rockers.

Will the plastic 92-96 Corvette LT1 covers work?
Other suggestions?

Stock valve covere will work with narrow body self aligning rockers. The wide body rockers will only require slight clearancing of the intenal supports of the stokers.
The corvette covers will work with any rockers without clearancing.

The LT4 covers don't have the alternator indent? I thought they did!

No interference at all.

SO LT1 or LT4 corvette valve covers work without any clearancing? Do they look any different on the outside? Where's the best place to get some?

Both LT1 & LT4 Corvettes share the exact same valve cover, the difference is in the fuel rail covers which has red lettering on the LT4. I got my valve covers from Jasson Cromer.
