ok well found the gasket decided to replace it and paint the valve cover while i was at it took my time and pretty happy with it.... like that awesome subaru hood prop LMAO

how i get her:

new gaskets....

complete.... i still have brand new headers sitting here im going to install this next weekend also

so i noticed the exhaust was not aliged and decided to straiten them up so i tried a screwdriver....nothing happened... tried a jack and it lifted the whole dam car LMAO strong exhaust FTL (in this case)

I say get the seats and front/rear panels covered with tan leather. You never see tan interior on Preludes anymore. Great contrast with the black dash and floor mats/carpet.

Good score finding your lude. Looks in quite good shape,
good to see your getting stuck into fixing and replacing
stuff already.
