Steel valve cover & roller rockers

Post by dwg86 »

I'm using Crower roller rockers on my build. They wouldn't clear the 2000 valve cover. So I cut the baffle out and welded in 2 smaller baffles under the plastic elbows. My Mopar P5249464 valve springs are hitting the side of the valve cover. Has anyone had this problem? If so, what valve cover did you use?

My rear most spring retainer hit the valve cover. I fixed the stamped steel valve cover with a bfh.

I used a 94 7120 head and valve cover w/ cork gasket(soon to be rubber) and the P5249464 springs don't hit the cover.
