'Morning guys
I'm going to replace my valve cover gasket soon and was wondering if any of you had done it and what new gasket you went with. I've read a lot of people like the rubber felpro ones but was wondering what you guys thought. Also I figured I'd replace my ccv's or whatever they are when I had the cover off. Does anyone know the part numbers for the elbows or the grommets

That being said, I used the rubber gasket this last time around - big benefit is the gasket stays put while you're wrestling the cover back over the rockers, and isn't as messy. But it also costs way more money...so is it a good trade off? Maybe.
As for the CCV elbows and grommets...
#2946079 - grommets (x2)
#53030991 - front elbow (open tube - ONLY REPLACE IF BROKEN)
#53030495 - rear orifice elbow
#4854265 - rear hose assembly (elbow to air cleaner and intake manifold to MAP sensor) (if clogged or broken)

I never "pimped" anything, except in this thread a couple times.
Sorry but that's the very definition of spamming
