I don't know about the mopar one's but the moroso one's are the best valve cover gaskets i've ever bought,put them on with no sealer and not a drop of leakage. Had the covers off three times and they still seal like new. As you say high $$$$ but it's pay up or keep smelling the burnt oil



it's ok to butt heads, just don't do it with a butthead

I installed the blue Moroso's last month and had to put alittle ultra blue on the valve cover side because it was leaking a bit. I guess my valve cover is a little warped or bent.

i'll give them a try. I used the coak but they arent good for multiple uses. they bake on. so i went with rubber which works good for me.

i look for a set for my sb. any deals out there?

Has anyone seen the ones on Ebay? They are listed as steel shim rubber for $20 plus $9 shipping WAY less than the Moroso--Could be a better deal...
