Will NCRS judging points be deducted for using Polly Nuts on rocker arm studs?

No...not a judged item.

The bigger problem is that most such nuts will cause interference with stock valve covers.

Thank you Joe. I hadn't thought about clearance. After making a visual inspection and considering the dripers in the valve covers, I don't think the poly nuts will clear. Going to get a new set of lock nuts.

Actually, the stock-type, prevailing torque lock nuts are the best bet for rocker arms. In fact, I wish they could be used on roller trunnion rocker arms.
