Default Valve Cover Interference
I am in the process of switching from the lemans cast aluminum valve covers to the chrome pentroof covers. The problem I ran into was interference at the ends of the rockers hitting the ends of the VC. I was able to push the VC on, but not what I like. Has anyone else had this issue? Not sure I want to get spacers. Maybe double VC gaskets? Maybe a ball peen hammer selectively administered? Any help or direction is appreciated.

Thanks, Jim

Edit: The rocker STANDS are hitting the VC, not the rockers..
