Hi guys,

searched, didn't get conclusive results... The valve cover gasket on a 300hp (no more, I don't want to change the injectors just max them out) can be a OEM one or should I get a stronger one? If stronger, who sells such items?

I have a bit of oil on the front of my engine. My mech (great guy seems to know his SR20DET) says positive for valve cover gasket. Says that's all I need to buy in terms of parts and he'll do it. But since I'm having it done anyway, what other parts that typically fail should I replace also?

Somebody mentioned a "front cover gasket", what is that?

Thank you!
Maciek
