clearance valvecover - rocker shaft

in case any of you has the valvecover down and the rocker arm assembly still together and in place, how much space is between the valve cover and each end of the rocker arm shaft?

since I have everything apart I can only guess, I think its about 0.35".

I´m looking for a way to eliminate the need for spring washers on each end of the shaft, depending on how much clearance there is until I hit the valve cover. Need to do that because crazy me wants axial needle bearings on each side of each rocker arm.
