New guy question
I'm new here so I apologize for what has probably been asked a couple of thousand times before.
I have a 428 that is getting a Mass-Flo EFI setup this winter and as long as the upper end is apart I want to change out the existing valve cover gaskets which tend to seep. The existing gaskets are cork and I was wondering if there is an after market gasket out there that is make of something less prone to seeping.
The valve covers have studs for mounting and I use nyloc nuts but when I tighten the nuts I'm only going by feel for how tight they are. Is there anything out there that would let me use a torque value to set them so all of the nuts are at the same tension? Oh yes, Edlebrock heads.
Thanks for any suggestions.
