Replace it with this:



This is the STR CAM PLUG--- $30, but really worth every penny. Not only do you get the bling, but it will last a very long time.

no need for a head gasket, just a valve cover gasket. even so, its a rubber gasket, so its reusable, unless its damaged or something.

no they don't.

since you spent that much you must be a moron, regardless of whether or not you bought it four years ago.

i know that everytime i spend a penny more for something that a friend got for less, i feel like a moron.
