A question about those '98's. Anyone know what a set of '98 valvecovers cost, and do they use the o-ring gaskets or the regular ones you have to scrape off? Those PP's are an awesome deal.

you can pick up the valve covers relatively cheap used because alot of people still switch over to the centerbolts. I used GM gaskets because of the notch in the head i think there is a sealing problem with some of the head gaskets. Other than that you said it "awesome deal"
