They probally will work, with some pretty heavy grinding on the inside. The area of conflict is the valve cover bolt boss at the lower left corner and the # 4 (or #5) valve spring and retainer.
Hope this helps,

I'll just get some FRPPs from lem. They're cheaper and I won't end up grinding on a new set of $200+ valve covers...

When a customer insists upon using those valve covers on a Cobra kit car or whatever, as long as it has a street/strip hydraulic or solid lifter camshaft, I use "Beehive" valve springs and retainers on the exhaust side. Those will clear.
