If they have "drip tabs" in them they will probly hit. i'm at .630 lift with scorpions and had to cut the tabs off. i rolled the motor over by hand with with the valve cover mounted but not bolted down and i could see the cover moving around.
mine looked like this ebay auction.

The drip tabs are already ground off from the factory.
