1.6rr question

I've read that many 1.6rr sets will not fit under stock valve covers... so my question is which, if any, will fit under stock valve covers?
And still perform of course.

Crane Gold 1.6 self-aligning RRs will fit without any problems.

COMP Magnums will, but they're a stamped steel roller design.

Yes, those are the correct ones. I have them on my engine and I'm very happy with them. I also have Crane 3/8" pushrods.

if u do 3/8" instead of 7/16", you do not need to change the studs, correct? Would there be any problem in using a 3/8" compared to the 7/16 in an all motor setup?
