just took off my valve cover today, I sent it out for powder coating since the oem finish peeled off pretty bad. peeling finish caused persistent leaks.. Had my VC gasket changed twice and leaks kept coming back. in the pictures you will be able to see the paint/ finish missing allowing oil leak around the gasket
I have my covers off till Wednesday so if anyone needs any additional pictures or anything let me know. But I can't compete with above video.. that it really as easy as that.. nothing to it... just have to take it slow, stretch your back a lot and be careful... slow and take your time. easy!
crazy thing is that tech left stickers on spark plug tubes and stickers got disinterested and went somewhere!!
here is where it was leaking really bad.. I guess oil made it around the gasket with all those chips!
