Big Block Valve Cover Gaskets - 02/24/10 08:17 PM
Any recommendations for valve cover gaskets for a 383/440? I'm using stamped steel covers.
Thanks.
Thanks.

Send a PM to b1headman about the gaskets that Roadhazard makes. 
Here's a thread about them

FWIW, I'm using these on my current build

Checked out that thread. It says not for stamped covers just fabed. Does he now have gaskets for stamped covers?

I guess I forgot about him not having the stamped steel VC versions.
Wouldn't hurt to send him a PM and ask.
Never know when new stuff comes out

Sorry alration, I don't have anything for stamped covers yet. I'll have to see if the profile of my new B/RB gasket will fit inside the stamped valve covers.
I need to find some now, I just sold the 2 sets I had at a swap meet last summer

Edelbrock has some really thick gaskets that should work well with stamped covers. The thinner gaskets work better with cast covers.

I just use any old gasket on mine. I always tighten the bolts on the bottom of the valve cover first and then the top. They don't seem to leak that way.
