Valve covers question
I’ve searched and cannot find any info on this but does anyone know of a pent roof style valve cover that will fit Ford Racing SCJ heads and clear roller rockers and the brake booster in my 79 Bronco?

I had ford racing aluminum covers on my 77 f150 and just had to remove the left one too install the engine then put it back on but I went back to the stock covers and I use roller rockers ..

Stock covers worked fine with roller rockers on my last 466.

Were you using FR SCJ heads? I’ve read that regular valve covers need clearance
