Cam cover gaskrt



FWIW, The best way to use a new gasket on the cam cover is to make sure the cover is not warped, the surface must be super clean with no pitting or gouges , the same for the cylinder head. Gaskets cannot be forced into valleys or holes, The only time I have had to change a cam cover gasket is when it has been cemented on both sides or damaged. A leak will develop if a tiny scratch in the cover or head surface is there, It s a valley. All gaskets want clean, dry and flat surfaces. Remember, you are working on aluminum which is easily damaged with careless use of scrappers like razor blades. THINK! Fred --
