Default Sheet metal albeit covers on turbo truck?

I'm wanting to buy some 2.5 inch sheet metal valve covers and relocate the coils. Has anybody done this? I did some quick measuring and altho it doesn't touch it is pretty close... Will there be any problems?

2.5's might hit the padding or fire wall in the back.. A bunch of guys have relocated the coils though.. I know my covers were close, I think they were only 2''
