Not all valve cover gasket quality the same! - cosmic_splatter - 08-16-2014 Here is a pic of the new felpro valve cover gasket in blue compared to the one I pulled out of the engine. You can clearly see that the felpro is much thicker and will seal better! John ps. Note ridges along the gasket to better hold it in the valve cover. Very nice! Perfect fit! Like a glove! RE: Not all valve cover gasket quality the same! - fixkick - 08-16-2014 felpro is top shelf. it might last longer too. it even looks better than mine, they made it better yet. good luck to you !!! RE: Not all valve cover gasket quality the same! - cosmic_splatter - 08-16-2014 I got it on Amazon. It really looks cool being blue! Here is the part number... FEL-PRO VS50473R RE: Not all valve cover gasket quality the same! - fixkick - 08-16-2014 thanks. i posted the full catalog here it is. i use catalogs from source, on all buys first. so i dont get the wrong parts. http://www.fme-cat.com/Application.aspx#passengercar Same with Bosch part, or SMP, or NGK, all catalogs for all parts (not china imported knockoffs) are in the OEMs catalogs. now. a blessing. the trick is to get 8v and 16v correct. very hard that. some call the 16v Kv and the 8v KC (v for van, c for canvas. 8v and 16v) tricky huh? your tracker is a VIN 6 car. the parts listed for Vin 6 fit your car. 6 = 16v. in GM parlance...... with real p./n in hand, you can google for cheapest source, or closest to your home for faster and cheaper shipping. or can ask the clerk at a brick store to find this part. faster. and not let them sell you the wrong part, as is the practice 1/2 time. 1995 had 2 engines.
