VC gaskets

[dwelles]

I just bought my daughter a 1997 grand prix SE 3800. She is leaving for college in 10 days and the valve cover gaskets need to be replaced. Does anyone know how to do this?

Moved.

this should cover you: http://www.grandprixforums.net/how-install-1-8-roller-rockers-l67-40706.html

You should also look into this one as well: http://www.grandprixforums.net/vide...-manifold-gasket-lifters-33-minutes-3112.html

Very common issue.

Also make sure you get these replaced as well: http://www.grandprixforums.net/how-change-coolant-elbows-49779.html
