SO I bought some used GT40 heads, that were off a 95 cobra, they came with svo 1.6 roller rockers. Now will the rockers clear the valve covers and also they turn a bit from left to right after being bolted down, is this normal?

Only way to really tell if they will clear is to put em on and turn the motor by hand,most will clear stock valve covers though.And slight movement from side to side is normal.

You can also run stock valve covers off a 94-95 gt they have a little more room than foxbody valve covers [patriot]

I've never heard that, I always hear about sn95 people switching to foxbody covers cause they are taller..
