Re: valve cover gasket question

["Gary H." <62to65mopar@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks for the "push-up-front" valve cover tip.  :) 

I looked on the Fel Pro catalog that is online --  http://fme-cat.com/application.aspx
The only Poly valve cover gasket they currently list is  VS 11828 R, which is made of  "evenly-sized cork particles evenly distributed throughout a rubber binder." Maybe the all-cork version is discontinued.
