i got a pair of edelbrock preformer heads with 1.6 rockers. was wondering if i need tall valve covers or will i be able to fit the stock ones for a stock look for my a 94 gt.

stock should work. you might have to take out the baffle in one of the cover though

Won't the aluminum heads give away the fact the car isn't stock?

Remove the baffles and the valve covers will work.

I used a .20 valve cover gasket (http://store.summitracing.com/partdetail.asp?part=SUM%2DG2321&autoview=sku

I haven't fired the engine yet, but it clears w/ the baffle while hand-cranking it over.

They'll work with the baffle removed, but just remember that once you remove that baffle you'll wind up with oil buildup in the upper/lower intake manifold.
