VALVE COVER GASKET 

for

CHEVROLET SMALL BLOCK  V/8

Gaskets are made of silicone

–   Our silicone rubber gaskets are made from aerospace mechanical 

     grade AMS silicone and therefore designed to withstand

     temperatures up to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.   

–   Therefore, they will not  break down and deform or crack up 

     like cork or neoprene.   

–   Also, our gaskets seal uneven and warped surfaces, and

     eliminates corrosion.

–   In addition, the silicone gaskets are 100% reusable.
