Hey, guys.

Just wanted to thank everyone and leave you with a tip I came up with for installing the valve cover gaskets. I searched the web, but could find nothing on not having to use RTV or gasket maker to to prevent the gaskets from falling out. I was able to pretty much throw the covers around while installing them and they stayed in place, till I pulled the rubber bands off. I actually greased up the valve cover groove and gasket with dielectric grease, as well as the head surface and they seated real nice.

Should work on just about any valve cover. Hope this helps someone.
