valve cover clearance
is there something I need to trim off the inside of the valve covers to make them clear the new rr's? i wouldn't think the 1.6's would have clearance issues, but the covers don't seem to want to go on and I can't tell what's holding them? any ideas? I would take pictures, but you wouldn't be able to see anything.

Re: valve cover clearance
Below is a good write up--worked great for me. Just take your time and double/triple check to make sure none of the rockers are hitting before starting her up.... You can check by using some white assembly lube on the rockers, tighten the cover down, turn the crank (by hand or starter) and pull the cover to check for any greese spots...
