Good stuff, thank you

Tuna Joe the reason for valve cover spacer is the poly locks on top of the stud more than likely, I'm wondering if you use new studs and crimp nuts on a roller setup would be any issue? I see no reason why they would loosen up.

Standard nuts will not fit into a roller rocker.

correct but roller rockers aren't required. I'm thinking OE rockers so you can run stock covers
