Valve Cover Gasket Choices
I need to replace my valve cover gaskets and am wondering if anyone has used the Fel Pros in my link or I'm open to any other suggestions.

Re: Valve Cover Gasket Choices
Those are the only gaskets I use. Perma dry plus. Just installed a set on my 68 a few days ago in fact. Expensive but worth it...no leaks. No sealant required...just torque to 3ft lbs.

Re: Valve Cover Gasket Choices
I use the Perma dry plus as well. No problems to report. I believe they are supposed to be reusable; Although, I have never reused them.
