258 Valve Cover
 

Stock, did these things come with gaskets or did they just use RTV straight
from the factory.?!?!
It was a PITA trying to get this thing on,..fitting it under fuel and
electric lines plus a hose here and there. I may have gotten RTV on some of
the lifters. !!!!!

Good luck, I do several dry runs, before I go for it.

Gaskets, at least they did in 1980 plus or minus half a decade. Either
way they leak. Sounds like not breaking the hoses loose was a shortcut
that took longer, eh?
