Default pro-magnum roller rockers

Has anyone got the pro-magnums to fit under a stock valve cover.

I did (previous set-up).

I also suffered some serious valve float right after install. I went back to stock rockers on my current set-up. I have no problems now.

Good luck..

I love mine the only thing is I had to pull the baffles out from the valve covers and grind just a little underneath where the bolts are for the coil pack brackets

thanks for the responses guys. Im wondering if my pushrod length is wrong because it seems like they are not even close to fitting.
I bought these 317 heads used and they came with a turbo cam, lifters, pushrods, rockers, the whole top end. the guy I bought it from had it on a 5.7 and im putting it on a 5.3, so I guess i need to measure the pushrod length. I cant get ahold of the guy to see if he had to use spacers. Does anyone know what the best deal on some spacers is??????? thanks again.
