Got the upper yanked off, in like a whole 20 minutes or less, and the vavle covers too.Anyway i have a few questions for you all.
1. Besides getting a Cobra/GT-40 gasket- is there anything special i should get(Its gonna be Fel-pro)?

2. I have the 95 Cobra 1.7s, are there any adjustments for these? or they just tighten down and leave them?(also what's the torque on them-dont know if its different then stock?
Thanks for the answers!

why did you pull them off? leaks?

Its was just the upper- replacing vaccum lines that were leaking, also are the valve covers anodized or something- i was thinking of polishing them too

you could but a nice 1/2 spacer on the intake..

Damn i didnt even think of that, i should have done that since i was doing all this.- Wonder if any auto parts store would carry that in stock
So do you have any answers to the other questions?
Thanks

make it out of plywood, it will insulate


(actually there are people in classics section who have done that very thing way back in the day under their holleys and such and it actually works LOL)

Seriously? i alsmot would do that, but seems to be too much work- ill just get one another day and a new gasket if i have to, anyway back to the original question.............[&:]

it always sounded shady to me, but there are people who SWEAR it works fine......

thats good ol' fashioned get'er done inventing right there - probably how they figured out spacers help in the first place, thats how that stuff usually works [&:]
