🔧 Fel-Pro 1628 Valve Cover Gasket Set" - Optimized Valve Cover Gasket Set by Fel-Pro 1628 Review

EXACTLY WHAT I NEED! SBCs always leak, but that solves a lot of problems. I realized that you can either spend a lot of money on machined valve covers and some money on gaskets, or you can spend a little money on stamped valve covers and a lot of money on gaskets. Another option is to let the oil flow everywhere. These Fel-Pro pads are the best! If there is ever a problem with the valve I'm sure I can remove the cap and reuse it.

For the price of these gaskets you can buy several sets of good quality cork gaskets and glue them onto the valve covers.

If you look at how flimsy they are at the point of contact with the engine head, you can bet they will leak, but they aren't.

I don't even think there was sealant or anything on those cork gaskets! but I replaced them both with these Few-Pro 1628 rocker cover gaskets! these things are BAD to the BONE! I will not lie! The only downside and the ONLY reason they didn't get 5 stars was the price. Although they are high quality…
