| Post subject: | valve cover gasket can't find one |
Been to three part houses and they are all trying to sell me the same gasket. It just does not fit my cover. I have a D-150 with a slant six motor I guess it is a 225 (3.7L motor) The cover has 4 holes with the tits facing inward on one side and the other side the tits face outward. Is this a big deal or am I just having a bad day. Thanks, Fran |

What year is your slant. All valve covers from '60 to '79 are the same. Valve covers from '80 on are differant. |

I just got one from NAPA, it is a Cork/Rubber the only thing I didn't like about it was the tabs didn't fit to well, other than that no problems. |

"I called Pepbay and Advanced Auto" unless your working on a rice burner, PepBoys is a place to stay away from, and Advanced ain't much better. |
