Default Valve covers and rocker arms. PLEASE HELP

Hey Just got finished installing my new heads and cam.

Big cam and ETP heads.

I had to use the ETP rocker stands and used the stock GM 1.7 ratio rockers.

When I turned it on it seemed the valve cover were "hopping" around.

Think removing the baffles will sove this?
