IMPORTANT!!

If you are changing your valve covers and if they are the origianl ones on the car and no one ever changed them, then BEWARE!!

Ford used these little round steel spacers that are embedded in the original valve cover gaskets to prevent over tightening of the valve cover gasket. Well what happen is they come loose and the drop into your engine!!! Make sure you count all of them and take the covers off slowly!! I dont know how many their are, but i know there is alot of them.

Just thought i would tell you before you go any further!
