🔧 FEL-PRO VS 50614 R Valve Cover Gasket Set: Superior Quality and Reliable Performance Review

Unfortunately the rubber seal has the same tiny factory cuts, almost invisible, but when the valve cover was adjusted the oil pressure in some parts became normal which was noticed after a week of use! Sorry, but Fellpro let me down this time. I had to replace it with another brand.

While it probably wasn't necessary, I replaced the gasket as part of a 100,000+ mile valve setup. The pad works great. Don't forget to put some Hondabond (I used red RTV) in the corners and you won't see a drop of oil. I didn't use spark plug tubes as I didn't have any leaks. An unexpected bonus were the chrome valve cover bushings.

This gasket kit includes rocker cover gasket, pipe gaskets, heat exchanger pipe gaskets and bushings. The valve cover gasket is an upgraded blue Permadride gasket. Everything fits perfectly. Buy it, it's really original quality at a great price and judging by the packaging everything is made in Japan except for the pipe seals which are made in China. This was for a 2003 Honda CR-V.

I've heard a lot about Fel-Pro Pads, especially their updated blue VCG Perma-Dry. A lot of people don't know about it, but any time you stretch a gasket, it's one of the main causes of leaking valve covers. The big surprise was that all key components were made in Japan (see my posted picture). I believe the only components not made in Japan but made in China are the valve cover bushings.

Perfect fit and seal on k24. All spark plug bushings and gaskets fit perfectly. Just remember to align the valve cover before attempting to install it. Do not push it in as you will stretch the seal. Just press straight down and if the corners don't line up, take out the washer and adjust until it's just right. You should not make new bends in the gasket. You should also replace the spark plug tube gaskets. If the valve cover gasket is hard or brittle, the spark plug gasket is the same. Get it…
