Review on Felpro VS50607R1 Valve Cover Gasket by Charles Lardieri

Revainrating 5 out of 5

While you're at it, it might be a good idea to replace the fan seals as well.

A blue front and black back. It came with a spark plug well gasket which was my reason for replacing this kit. It also came with a metal-coated rubber washer that came with bolts that hold the valve covers in place. There is a trick to putting them in screws, do a search and you will find a video. The quality of these shims appeared to be a little inferior to the OEM factory shims that come with the car. In addition, everything went great. While you're at it, it might be a good idea to replace the fan gaskets, since you'll be removing them to access the valve covers. Oh yes, and spark plugs, and if you're really ambitious, ignition coils. The work for them is much higher if you go to the store. Another tip, if you haven't already, is that the spark plug bore bushings are one piece. Therefore, after removing the protruding split rubber piece, part of the O-ring may remain on the valve. After the bushing is completely removed, you will see shiny metal where the bushing will go. This confused me a bit and took me a few hours to figure it out. Much luck.

Pros
  • DESIGNED TO WORK - Proprietary cork rubber formula
Cons
  • I'll keep quiet
