Many years ago, you could change a straight six valve cover gasket in 10 minutes for 10 bucks. Six months later, if it was leaking a little, you'd snug up the cap screws until you finally had to change the gasket again. Well, those days are long gone. Valve cover gaskets are now sophisticated components that serve as part of complex emissions control and NVH (noise-vibration-harshness) systems.
Our Valve Cover gasket features include:- High Quality Cork-Rubber Gaskets: OEM or better quality for engines that are designed for conventional gaskets. Magnum Engineers insist on superior material quality that you can rely upon for dependable service.
- Cork-Rubber Gaskets with Compression Limiters: Cork-rubber gaskets with the added benefit of stoppers at bolt holes to reduce torque loss.
- Cork-Rubber Gaskets with High Temp Sections: Cork-rubber gaskets with special heat resistant sections for applications where hot components, such as exhaust passages, are in close proximity to valve covers.
- Special Construction Gaskets: Premium composition materials that are required or recommended for the unique operating conditions of certain engines. For example, the outer valve cover flanges adjacent to the exhaust manifolds on some Chrysler Big Block V8's are exposed to temperatures as high as 700°F.
