what brand do you have? i was thinking about grinding mine. i pulled mine off but i dont see any marks from where they were hitting. i think im going to reinstall them and run the engine for a few min until they show me where they are hitting.

my engine has run a total of 45 seconds total and there is no missing where they were hitting. some people get away with the OEM covers and some dont. i'm running aftermarket casting heads which may be one of the contributors to the rockers hitting so hard. mine is actually picking up the valve covers when running.

i found where they are rubbing on the rockers. on the top of the head near the intake. i got a round file on the valve cover and clearanced it a **** hair and walla no noise. so pm me your zip and i will give you a shipping quote on the spacers. and paypal me the shipping costs and they are yours.
