Default 1973 valve cover gasket

Looking to replace the valve cover gaskets on my stock L82. I plan on using the Fel-Pro 1628. Engine has original L82 finned valve covers.
Any tips or suggestions on doing this job?
Thanks.

When I used those gaskets on my valve covers I needed slightly longer screws. Other than that I had no issues. I should note I got my 73 L82 with Edelbrock valve covers and I switched back to the fined OEM Chevy Corvette L82 covers. Great gaskets though. Lots of luck. Russ
