Got a small leak so I looking to replace the gasket, but not sure what's the best one on the market. Have any of you gents shopped/bought any? Any advise?
 
Make sure none of the bolts have come loose first. That gasket is pretty tough.
 
I am about to have to replace my valve cover gaskets. Is it harder than it looks? Just unplug spark plugs wires, remove bolts, replace gasket with sealant, replace bolts, replace wires....
is that it? Do we have to replace the bolts also or are they reusable?
 
sounds good to me:rock::rock::rock:

Kinda. Be careful with wires not to breAk any. You'll have to remove Intake to replace. DO NOT use sealant on gaskets. Bolts are reusable sir
 
Silicone gasket maker is a hack job! Don't do it unless that's how the factory sealed it (like a diff cover). Pieces of it can pushed into the motor damaging it.
Unfortunately I seen this too many times in my career!
 
Replacing the gasket is pretty straight forward. Just go get some new factory gaskets. They are pretty cheep.
