Valve covers for shaft mount rockers?

I need to find out what valve covers will work with a set of jesel shaft mount rockers and the alternator in the stock location. If anybody has had experience with this I would like to hear it. And also I would like to know places to get these valve covers from.

Do a search for the Canton LT1-specific valve covers. They are incredibly roomy. I have them on mine.

I have seen those and heard of problems somtimes with even stud mounts. Small problems. But I dont want to deal with anything like that I just want some bolt on valve covers if there is such a thing in this situation. What about lt4 valve covers? And also do you have a link to those canton ones?

I have the Canton valve covers for my jesel shaft mounts and they fit good. We did have to do a little modification to make them work because they were hitting near the alternator location.

What exactly did you have to do to modify them?
