Default Valve covers

I have crower shaft mounted 1.6 rockers arms. I ground out everything outta the stock covers and they still wont fit. The B&B ones wont fit either. DOes anyone know where to find some, or what kind I need?

I'm using GM Performance Parts chrome covers that I got from Jegs. I ground off the drippers and took out the baffles and I'm able to use a stud girdle on top of my 1.5 rockers. I'm also using a set of Earl's Pressure Master valve cover gaskets.

To help get them in easier, I took the mounting grommets off the wiper unit, will give you about 3/8" more clearance, you will have to get some large washers to go under the 3 mounting bolts.
