Mine did the same.. Remove covers and look for the dark spots on them. It will be at the valve cover fastener indents. I used a dremel and grinded away a good portion maybe an 3/16". Problem solved.

Look for the wear marks on the underside of the covers. The rockers may be hitting those thin aluminum baffle plates. They are riveted in. You can grind the rivet heads off and remove the baffles. That should give you the clearance you need.

You can get some 98 valve cover spacers for a good deal on Ebay. I think some of the sponsors have them too. But i am not sure for 98s.
