Rockers and valve cover clearance issues

[Matt13]

Anyone seen these Comp Cam rockers before? I can't ID them anywhere. Says 69 1.50, G -10

[anlauto]

1.50 would be the ratio

Look like Crane Cams rockers to me....as stated 1.5 is ratio. What else do you want to know?

Are these taller than comparable rockers? Reason being, my car came with ratty old M/T Valve covers with no baffle. The new covers I have and just finished painting seem to touch the tops of the rockers where the baffle is. Does it matter? Should I try to remove the baffles?

[RUNCHARGER]

It's best to leave the baffles in place. If you use two VC gaskets will it give you enough clearance?

[Matt13]

Perhaps. I'll have to check that. Of course my worry would be leaks. Also, the Mickey Thompson's didn't have baffles. Are they that important?

[RUNCHARGER]

You glue two gaskets together if needed, it's cheaper than buying new valve covers. Without baffles excessive oil can make it into the breathers, making a mess or pushing too much oil into the intake/air cleaner.

You can beat the baffles with a hammer  

[Matt13]

Well, I think I'll try a second set of gaskets. I'm also going to see if anyone on here has a set of spacers lying around.

if it is just touching you may be able to dimple the baffle instead of removing it .
But I would do what RunCharger said & double the gaskets with longer bolts of course
