I think they will clear Stainless marine exhaust no problem. They clear stock exhaust and they clear Lightning Headers. I do not know if they will clear Roller Rockers. Hopefully someone will chime in with an answer to that one.

I'm 95% that the roller rockers won't clear with stock valve covers. I had to replace my covers on a 502.

Roller rocker arms will fit under stock valve covers but. You will need to use the 1/2" thick felpro gaskets.

You have to grind down the dripper tabs on the inside...... Doing so I am using stock gaskets with .600 Lift Comp stainless roller rockers with no issues........
