1.6 rockers, will the stock valve cover work?
 
Well I am just making sure I have everything set before I do the head and intake swap, and my question is will my stock valve covers fit with my GT-40 P heads and 1.6 roller rockers, except for the need to plug the a/p holes in the back of the heads with plugs.Thanks...

You should be alright being that the factory ratio for the rockers are 1:6's. I buddy did the roller swap and he just put his stock covers back on.

I have never done it but I have read about it a few times. If you are putting 1.6's on stock heads they fit but you may have to grind a bit here and there, and I am pretty sure you have to take off the shield at the bottom of the fill tube on the inside. You may want to check around to save some headaches. I am sure alot of people here have actually done it and know alot more than I do. There is also someone here with a GT-40P head website. I'd look into it.
