Im glad i could kinda document it realtime on a site dedicated to these cars. I decided to get a torque wrench and go back in for those lower seals today.

Good paint job on that valve cover. It really dresses up the engine bay alot better.

Thanks bro. Yeah i saw that, let me know if u have any problems with it, i read how it might make the engine dirty, but i read the same thing about k&n, so idk (sounds good when revving from idle tho, right?)

just did the valve cover gasket myself..... the repaint looks great i have to touch mine up. I have put alot of money into my cb but I love the car .... all jokes aside great start bud

Give thanks! The cap on the paint was maroon but it came out fire engine red. but hey you've got to make the best of what you got and have fun doing it, and these cars are great value for the money. Plus my son loves this stuff, so we're building a decently wicked family car, for the guys.

Rolled the dice on some ebay headers



I'm no expert but these look kinda ruff on the inside





Definitely need to get that loose metal strip by the O2 hole. Dont want that going down into my cat.

Nice! I would recommend you get the Percys seal 4 good gasket . Its 15 on ebay and its well worth it and it doesnt blow out like the regular gaskets do.

[DCB7]

Thanks man. Would you happen to have the exact part number for it? Is it $15 a set or just one?

Thing is, I wanted to install it tomorrow, but from the description it sounds like its worth the wait. I only want to do it once.

So far so good. Love the sound, love the feel. Just have to get my O2 sensor out of the old one to cut the check engine light off.
