SB Cast VC Gaskets
Picked up some old M/T cast alum valvecovers cheap but no idea what gaskets to use? Partsamerica shows 8 different kinds of Felpro's, $11-$50, any tips on which ones are best for street use? Also will the bolts from my stock steel covers work?? Thanks

Dont think the bolts will work. Forget the parts house stuff. Get the grey rubber over metal valve cover gaskets from your mopar performance dealer. THese are the best and they are reusable.

When you get them set on the head with the gasket, make sure the intake runners dont hit the covers! You can torque them down until you break the ears off and never get them sealed if the runner is propping them up! get your dremel out and clearance them if needed.
