went into advance auto today to get my cover gaskets and sealant..

the only two brands that popped up on the the screen were Fel-Pro and Beck/Arnley, and ive heard some bad things about the felpros for the 3.0 so i went with the beck/arnleys.... did i get the better pair? the beck/arnleys also come with a plenium gasket, all for 32 bucks...

hoping to get rid of the valve cover leaks this weekend.

any last minute advice to give?

thanks!

 

Personally, I use the Fel-pro and they work just fine. Fel-pro has been in the business for a long time, but I think the issues you're reading about are more related to the headgaskets....in which case, I can't vouch for those. I bought mine (and will continue to) from engnbldr.

As fas as the BA's, I'm sure they're just fine, too. Just use the RTV 'round the half-circles and torque it all down evenly.

 

32 bucks for valve covers????? for a set of valve cover gaskets and a camshaft gasket bundle, beck/arnley, i paid 8 bucks. sounds like you got ripped off, my friend.

 

Well he has the 3.0 and you have the 22re. Everything is more expensive for the 3.0.
