If it doesn't fit, you can buy a set of spacers from Summit Racing and probably others. They are essentially a 1/2 inch thick aluminum valve cover spacer with regular gaskets on either side. That's what I needed to do to get the clearance for full rollers.

I'm using Comp Cam Magnum Pro Roller Rockers with stock L82 valve covers - I used a 1" spacer from Jegs (I painted them orange)

I fit Crane energizer aluminum roller rockers on Sportsman 2 heads under stock L82 valve covers..... no marks and I didn't even need to cut the oil drippers down on the inside of the covers.

FelPro makes a thick gasket that's 3/8", twice as that of stock.
Part # 1604.
Dart aluminum heads have a taller mounting flange where the valve covers sit, IM not sure about Trick Flow. I looked on their site and did not give the specs on them in that area.
I think they would be like the Dart heads in the area, plus the thicker gasket would not hurt, I use them on my Dart Pro 1's just to be safe, plus help the oil splash for the PVC breathers.

Bozzman3 - The spacers I used has a flange just like the bottom of the valve covers. I used RTP to hold the gasket to the bottom of the spacer and then I used RTP to hold the gasket to the bottom of the valve covers - I didn't want to wrestle 2 gaskets - worked well - no leaks.
The L82 valve covers I have were from Paragon -
