Re: Help me with these 7 project tasks
One tip on the valve cover gaskets - don't cheap out on this one.
Use metal core valve cover gaskets and spreader bars. The metal core gaskets will not squish down after time and the spreader bars will distribute the force of the cover bolts evenly. This reduces the chance for leaks.
Racers use heavy cast aluminum or steel valve covers which have the effect of "spreading" the force of the bolts to reduce leaking, but these are very pricey for good quality covers.
I got Magnum brand steel core gaskets but there are many other brands so you might want to research this. I got the spreader bars from Ebay for cheap.
