Default 1992 getting roller rockers

Quick question. I am about to put a set of 1.6 roller rockers on my 92. Will I need taller valve covers to clear them?

The stock cover should fit but you'll need to cut the drip tabs off the inside of the stock magnesium covers. I installed Scorpion 🦂 1.6 self aligning narrow body rockers on my 92 and cut the drip tabs off the stock covers with a small cutoff wheel mounted to a Dremel. Worked perfectly.

Okay. That's kind of what I thought. You don't happen to have any pics of the before and after on the valve cover do you?

I didn't take a pic of the underside of the valve covers. Only of the rockers installed. The drip tabs don't need to be cut flush with the cover. I cut an 1/8 - 1/4" from the surface of the cover and didn't have any issues.
