Default L98 Valve Cover Gaskets?
I'm looking for "thick" valve cover gaskets for my 86 with center bolt valve covers due to rocker clearances. I've been using Mr. Gasket #5868 (3/16" thick molded rubber) but they don't produce these any more. Where else should I look?

Try the PermaDry from FelPro, they work well with my ProMagnum RRs.

But I had to reduce the drip tabs and narrow the bolt towers a little.
