1.6 R.Rockers tap on Stock valve covers?

I am running an L98 Corvette cam, L98 Aluminum Corvette heads, 1.6 RR's.... I hear some tapping and I am sure it is the valve covers... however they can be a jackass to takeoff with tpi... so any one have problems with a similar setup?

I run 1.6 full rooler rockers with stock valve covers NO issues.
