valve cover fitment question

Just a quick update on this. I havent looked into this any farther until yesterday when I removed the engine. I was looking to see if I could just relieve some clearance on the sealing area, when I saw that the cover wasnt moving because of the tabs on the intake are touching the edge of the cover and not tight on the springs. Sorry if I confused anyone with this. Just didnt check it out when I first put them on and I should have not assumed!
