I have HS Rockers in C- Heads and I was able to get the stock valve covers to fit (sort of). You need Crower 86050S-16 Polylocks assuming you're running 7/16 rocker arm studs. I did not use a spacer or double gaskets just the Mahle thick rubber VC gaskets (Fel Pro has them too). While it did fit the baffle contacted the top of the polylock that contact amplified the valve train noise making my engine sound horrible. Just drill out the baffle where the Polylock makes contact and you should be fine. Initially I thought I messed up my valve lash somehow, and after relashing and still hearing the noise, I tossed on some stock height Mr. Gasket Chrome Valve Covers and voila the noise was gone and have been too busy to bother with modifying the baffles on my stockers.
You can see here how these PolyLocks don't protrude up too high:
When I bought these heads I had the chance at getting the 455 that went with it; and at the time passed because I was wrongly informed the 455 wouldn't fit with the condenser installed. Could've saved myself a ton of time and $$$$.
