Hey All,
I am going to be putting a new Valve Cover Gasket on in the coming weeks.


I have never done one of these before. Is there anything else I should change while I am at it?

Sorry if you are seeing this twice. I accidently posted it in the photo thread as well.


Thanks all

 

The answer sort of depends on why you're changing the valve cover gaskets.

But in general...

change the upper intake manifold and plenum gaskets, as you'll be taking those parts apart.

Also replace the spark plug tubes and valve cover grommets.

BROlando, I am replacing the gasket because it is leaking.

Thanks

Good grief, I actually thought I added that earlier. Good looking out sir thank you.

 

You're doing God's work, Jeff

You should ask the mods for a sticky thread with the parts list!

 

Appreciate all the help.

I will give it a try in the next week or so.

Thanks
