Will Crane energizer roller rockers #CRN-11744-16 fit under the LT-1 style aluminum valve covers? If not, anyone got any suggestions?

I should be more specific. I have a set of the 69 and later factory aluminum valve covers on my 327 I would like to use on the 383 I am building, and am looking for a set of roller rockers. Will the Crane energizers (1:5) fit under these covers?

Did an advanced archive search yesterday and found a thread where a few guys are using the Crane rollers under these covers on Dart heads(I plan on using Darts also, but that's for another thread). I would think Comp Cams rollers ought to work too. The advantage seems to be the raised rail for the valve covers giving the additional clearance. So it looks like they'll work!
