Which valve cover gasket to go with?
I noticed a fairly decent passenger side valve cover leak on the 283 in my 63 a couple days ago. I put cork gaskets on it last time, but that was over 2 years ago now.
My question is if I should go with a cork set again, or if I should go with the FEL-PRO VS12869T. That's their Permadry gasket that's about $25, so I don't know if I should spend the extra dough if it'll leak after 2 years like the cork one did. If the gasket is worth it, I don't mind spending the extra dollars
