FE Valve Cover Gaskets
Just wanted to find out what you guys think are the best valve cover gaskets for the 427 FE motors.
Thanks

I'm sure you'll get just as many votes for the FelPro composite covers as you do for the cork.

I like the Felpro Blue Stripe type and have them in all of my older cars with FE engines. Only had one ever leak and that was because I didn't get it level when I put it on.

Gentlemen,
Thanks for your input. Looks like I'll be getting some FelPro Blue Stripes.

If you need a little extra clearance for fancy rockers, I recommend the cork gaskets that DSC Motosports sells. They have several thicknesses. I use 3M weatherstripping adhesive to glue them to the cover and a light coating of wheel bearing grease on the head mating surface. I've had them on and off dozens of times and never a leak. Of course, the intake/head junction needs to be relatively flat...
