Anyone have experience with this engine and aftermarket VCs as far as clearing the rockers?

Hey there, I did replacement valve covers on my 427sr. All you need are "tall" valve covers and they work just fine. Many "cobra" branded covers are available. I got mine at shelby engines dot com. They were great to work with! I would not attempt to modify standard heights with extra spaces or gaskets.
