states 5 sets availableBe advised. Fel Pro stopped making the v13199r rubber valve cover gaskets about 2 years ago. They are really hard to find now. I'm actually trying to find some myself right now. All local parts suppliers can only get the cork version
Managed to get a set of these.
Chicken's doing ok!!!
Too late for that Mike. Already been done years ago. Had a vasectomy. Had 6 kids in 9 years. Called my wife "fertile Myrtle". Seems like every time I came home, there was another kid calling me Dad. I noticed a box of donuts lasted about 3.2 seconds and I was getting further away from the table all the time. So, I made one of the best decisionsCarmine, did you say you might shave your nuts?
Speaking for myself, it's my understanding that the guide plates give you a better alignment. With me, one push rod started to gouge a mark into the cash iron head. We decided to go with the 3/8" pushrod and a guide plate. I'm not sure if the pushrod hole in the head had to be made bigger or not to accommodate the larger pushrod. I wouldn't have gone with the guide plates if it wasn't for that issue. Maybe someone else can explain better as to why they are used.Question, still learning myself, but why run guide plates on iron heads? I only have run them on my aluminum eddys
What do you mean by oil on the valve cover?? Do you take and brush a little oil on the gasket where it meets the head?? The two gaskets that you glue together, have they ever come apart or leaked?? Shorter poly locks would have also been an option. But my concern still is the 7 thread exposure on the rocker nut. I just want to feel confident that the rocker nut is far enough down the stud so nothing happens. Looking forward to talking with someone from Scorpion today, Carmine.I use two gaskets glued together. Studs in the heads and Permatex'd to the head. oil on the valve cover. Makes it easy to remove and reuse. On the other question, I think they also sell short poly locks.
That thickness is the gasket I have on order from ShowCars, Carmine.We use a 3/8"thick Best gasket cork gasket> I have had great luck with these and had no compliants that Iam aware of? No poly lock contact with valve cover. Others thickness many problems.
