Removing valve cover
 
Really quick question should be an easy one for anyone who has done it.

Do you have to take out the spark plugs when you remove the valve cover? Never removed the VC before and was wondering if I could avoid removing the spark plugs, thanks!

That is correct!

Go for it Croninc! Are you going to paint your VC?

croninc 05-30-2009 01:23 PM

its already painted and looks really good check out my project thread, I think a lot of people missed it

sorry for the double post, o another thing....

what are the torque specs. I looked in my clinton manual and tried online couldnt find it. And what order do you tighten them down???

o yeah i wet sanded it down again and repainted looks a lot better imo.


anyways back to my question.
