Valve cover gasket

94Dodge Truggy · 06-06-2007, 12:33 PM

I am working on my mustang with the 4.6 modular motor and the gasket on the valve cover made of rubber seems to have grown. It is made to be reused, but when I went to reinstall it in the groove in the valve cover it had grown and would not fit. I put it in the freezer and that helped a little but not enough. I paid good $ for this reusable rubber gasket for the valve cover so that when at the track I would be able to do inspections and reinstall it. Anybody have any suggestions? :confused:
