valve cover clearance

Well here I am...all dressed up and the valve cover won't fit! lol We started drop the 440 back in my Duster last night and never gave ANY thought to the fact the new valve covers are taller than the stock ones...anyway true to this thread I have to figure something out. I really don't want to loose the blower motor if I can help it, but I am NOT modifying these valve covers...so I'm hopeful I can read through these threads and find an alternative.
