Sorry, I know it's your rifle to do with as you please, but that Tapco junk does nothing for me.
IMO, if you want a AK looking rifle, get an AK. If you want a sporting looking rifle in 7.62x39, find something like a an unconverted Saiga or a Mini 30. As long as you don't do something stupid like removing the bayonet lug and you save the original parts, at least you have the option of un-Bubbing that poor rifle. Please don't drill and tap the bolt cover for a scope or you will permanently cut the value in half.
Just looked on Gonebroker today and there is a Chinese SKS set up pretty much just like that one that has a day to go and no bids @$295. That shows you what the market thinks of a Tapco equipped SKS.
