Rocker Shaft ARP Studs with Stock VC's

[Jerryl]

Anyone use these studs (unmodified ) with stock valve covers?

They will not work!

They will not work with stock valve covers. The studs are too tall. The valve covers come pretty close and you may be able to get by with doubling up on the valve cover gaskets but I doubt it. I had my car down another two weeks waiting on a set of TA Perf. valve covers after running into this exact same problem.

Or use spacers from RJC Jason makes for roller rockers. Put on correctly with Right Stuff & they dont leak & mine are now 4 seasons & only thing that I worry about is getting them off one day. Man, they are Stuck On Good!!

Thanks guys.
Just wanted to make sure this was not an anomaly.
