So I'm in a mess. I'm working on putting these roller rockers on my engine. I tried fitting the valve covers on, and as usual with my life, I don't have clearance.


I drilled out the baffles for the valve covers, and still don't have the clearance. I'm looking at spacers, but realized that I may have ruined my current covers. I'm also looking at a set of new taller covers. The biggest problem is, I don't want to buy spacers and need new valve covers to retain my pcv system. I also don't want to buy custom valve covers and ruin them trying to put a pcv valve in them.

What route do I take here?

I hate to say it, but most of the taller valve covers, will require a coil relocation kit, and you still likely need to drill an mount fittings on then to have a functional PCV system. Expect to pay at least $260 on up just for valve covers. Then add roughly another $100-250 for a coil relocation kit if needed, and $10-$50 for fitting if needed for PCV system.
These are the hidden cost associated with many RR systems, especially adjustable RRs.

Every spacer we have dealt with has leaked. Can plumb any vent system you like into them.
