[Tigers] Valve cover clearance??

[CoolVT at aol.com]

To those who wrote on the valve covers....I wasn't there when  someone tried 
fitting the valvle covers yesterday. Possibly it is just an issue  of 
removing/grinding the baffles.  The other things is that each company  producing 
rockers seems to have different dimensions.  These are stainless  with a part # of 
2331, but I don't have the manufacturer.  
I'd still be curious to know what the clearance is from cover top  to bottom 
of the cowl.  My engine is out and I can't do the  measurements.
Getting the covers off once installed in the car is not an issue  for me.  In 
42 years I don't think the originals had ever been off until  last week:-)
