Wait until your engine is cool (~2hours), take off all the air feed lines, then unbolt the valve cover
put a plastic bag over your engine so nothing unwanted gets into your engine)
-paint it, its the good time!
-take off the old gasket (its gonna be in 1 single piece)
then, look for bolt pattern and torque pattern for the valve cover (im sure its on here), then plug back all the air lines, then youre done! I bought the vc gasket last week as for when im going to paint my valve cover.

Can you get the valve cover gasket at any auto parts store or is the OEM one needed? And does anyone have the part number for the gasket?

I bought my gasket set at OReilly's for about $30, complete set.

Mine LOL....
