On the '97 V6 valve covers, you need to remove the oil baffles with the
Crower 1.7's. I have the 1.6 Crowers on mine and they come very close...but
they don't tap the valve cover. Not sure about the pushrod length, but i'd
check that if anyone does it on a V6. The Crower kit comes with the
Rockers, Studs, and "Posi-Locks" (nuts)...that's it.

The 1.7s and 1.6s are the same price, and yes they are self aligning.
I BELIEVE the price for the V6, standard was $231.00 something.. I can
post the exact info tomorrow when I get to to work. The 1.7s are the
way to go though... No issues with timing or valve adjustment. The
only thing I am not sure of with the V6 is vavle covers... You might
just have to stay with the stock ones, but you'll need to knock
the oil baffles hammer and 2x4... Not a big deal from what I've heard/
read. You'll have to ask Crower on the valve covers (mopar doesn't list
an aftermarket cover for the v6, except '91 and older)

I'll post all info on the Crower buy, and Mopar valve covers tomorrow.
