Corrado valve cover gasket in my 8V

The Corrado rubber gasket is DEFINATELY worth it IMO.  It's a mere $20 for the kit, and in the end I think it saves you money, as you can remove and replace the valve cover(to paint it, adjust valves, remove head, etc.) and not have to worry about buying a new gasket.  My valve cover leaked pretty bad, I went through 3 cork gaskets(one using no sealer, one using a little sealer, and one using a lot of sealer), and none of them even helped slow the leak.  I got the rubber one and it quit immediately- HTH,

I have heard that the valve cover gasket from a Corrado is a betetr gasket. The studs have to be changed to bolts though, or the other way around. Does NE1 know about this mod and is it worth it? I need a VC gasket pretty badly.

Should I just put a cork one in there?

thanks
