Crane Gold 7/16 rockers & centerbolt covers

Does anyone know if Crane's Gold full roller rockers sized for 7/16" stud fit under the stock L98 centerbolt covers? I have a set of Iron Lightning heads with 7/16" studs, guideplates, hardened pushrods, etc and I want to use the stock L98 covers.

I've seen several people say they fit, but it looks like they were mostly 3/8" stud applications. I'm looking at part #s 11752 (1.5 ratio) and 11755 (1.6 ratio).

I think that if you can find a self-aligning, narrow-body set*, you'll probably be OK - but that's probably the next mod I'll be doing, so I'll be paying attention to this thread as well...

* Of course, I've been looking (not too hard) for a set that's:

* steel;
* 1.5 ratio;
* self-aligning;
* narrow-body; &
* full-roller

& haven't been able to find one yet, so if you do, let me know!
