Default LS1 1999 Z-28 Valve Cover Gasket Replacement

I have a steady drip ID'd as the valve cover gaskets by the dealer. They tightened them to see if it would help and it did rather well for a few weeks then it returned.

OK I'm sold, new gaskets, but $400! No way!

Is there a tutorial someone could point me to or advice. I'm not going to pay these kind of prices any more. I just did my own water pump and saved $300.00

Any help or input would be greatly appreciated.

That job is pretty easy. Have you seen ls1howto.com? Here's a link to the cam install instructions, valve covers have to come off for that:
