I hate when that happens.....

Yeah my valve covers have been leaking for the longest time. I fixed the left one which was easier to get at but i was gunna wait until i get some new chrome ones or something like that. What kind of valve covers were you going to get?

Just got everything put back together, the engine looks better, now its only a matter of setting the timing and firing order again. i got mr gasket valve covers for about $30, the cork gaskets were seprate
