X2,...I used factory 70 BB valve covers on my build using Crane's roller rockers, and had to loose the baffles completely for clearance,...no biggy, no problems with anything else, or no running problems/leaks/etc

I have 1.6 Harland Sharps & Eddy heads on my 440, and by denting the baffles for clearance and chamfering the rocker stands, the OEM '69 covers fit fine using thick cork gaskets.
