C3 Corvette 5.7L Perfect Fit

Perfect fit for 77 Corvette 5.7 (350 cu in). High quality seal. It is very durable. I appreciate the extended shims they include. Would buy again.

Seals are leaking! for rocker cover gasket kits

I never had a problem with Fel-Pro gaskets until I installed them and one side leaked and no matter what I did the gasket kept leaking. Replace it with a new gasket and see if it fixes the leak.

Pros
  • Consistent test results
Cons
  • Definitely bad product

A+ value good product for the price

Great product very good value unlike most rocker cover gaskets. Rubber with Steel Embedded also comes with valve cover bolts, wait, distribute solder manifold. Very good value for money plus

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • Mostly good but...

So far, so good. I had to remove all the regular washers/rings.

So far so good. I had to remove all the factory washers/rings from the valve cover studs. I was then able to reuse the nuts to tighten them up. as long as there is no leak. I didn't use the extra parts that came with it, just the boxes. it was on the iron block 86 vette

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • Not the best

See the back of the label and this chart for instructions.

First off, these pads work great. Instructions are on the back of the plastic packaging label. Directions: One side of the pad has the text PUSHROD SIDE and each pad is embossed with direction. Place the text to the center of the engine and to the ground. So the text is next to the intake pointing down towards the camshaft. Also, T-nuts are optional. If you have a C4 with original magnesium alloy valve covers, ignore them. The gaskets themselves have brass inserts (clearances) for the valveโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Ease of Use
Cons
  • 0

Good as gold! for gaskets

Perfect for 77ft Corvette with GM 5.7L V8 350 small block engine I replaced the original 1977 GM cork gasket which was crumbling and looking like a sieve leaked. Even a small amount of oil spilled over the engine looks like a ton. Remember to clean the tappets/valves of any visible deposits and dirt/debris while you have the covers off. Parts cleaner dissolves dirt well and evaporates quickly. I used a rag and a flat head screwdriver to clean the old gaskets before installing. You want theโ€ฆ

Pros
  • One year trial
Cons
  • Available in white only
