Valve Covers

I have a 56 Oldsmobile 324. I want to get new valve cover gaskets, and repaint the valve covers. Does anyone know where I can find the valve cover gaskets?

Have you tried car part store like Napa, or Car Quest? If they don't have, or cant get, try Fusick.

Some company that I think is on Ebay sells reusable valve cover gaskets for 303 - 324 - 371. Its probably well worth the money if you ever have to take the valve cover off again in the future

I bought a set of reusealbe ones from Summit a while ago for my 67 330. They where $20 or $25

I like them a lot. Easy to install, no RTV needed, not possible to make a mistake
