    Hi,

    Wondering the work involved to do this job myself OR how much would it cost to have it done in a shop?

    Thx

    surprised no one posted on this yet. but its pretty much the same amount of work on all cars. take what you need to take off to get to them and replace them. replace any other gaskets and/or o-rings that you take off on the way and that might be easier to do while you have stuff off and are that far.

    If your lim gasket hasn't been done yet do that at the same time as the valve cover gaskets will need changed at that time anyway.
