Good afternoon just did a engine re-build and did some upgrades the fabricated valve covers i installed do not fit with the wiper motor cover installed i am using aluminum roller rockers which require the tall valve cover any body else come across this issue?driving it without wipers thank god i live in san diego
 
By design tall perimeter will always hit the wiper motor, the center bolt covers have no problems because they step in further from gasket lip before rising up
My work only around was to use steel covers and massage the end for wiper clearance.Some have fitted a smaller wiper motor
