Depending on the rocker arms used, it may be necessary to grind off a corner on a couple rocker arms so the baffles clear also.

I used a cresent wrench to break the tabs off, and used a thick cork gasket along with the rubber seal. No grinding needed, plenty of clearance for the roller rockers.

I think my problem may be the poly locks. Did not know they made short and long ones. Gonna check into that.
