Description
The Chevy Big Block Cork Valve Cover Gaskets seal the mating surface between Chevy big block valve covers and the cylinder head to help prevent oil leaks. Cork construction at 1/8" thickness is built to match the Chevy big block gasket rail pattern shared across multiple generations of this engine family, so bolt pattern and sealing surface must match your specific application for proper installation.
This gasket set fits the Chevrolet Big Block V8 Gen II (Mark IV) — 6.5L/396, 6.6L/402, 7.0L/427, and 7.4L/454 CID — the Gen V — 7.4L/454 and 8.2L/502 CID — and the Gen VI — 7.4L/454 CID. Sold as a pair, covering both valve covers in a typical installation.
Verify bolt pattern, sealing surface, and gasket material before installation, and replace worn gaskets during valve cover service or a fresh installation.
Applications
Fits Chevrolet Big Block V8 Gen II/Mark IV (396, 402, 427, 454 CID), Gen V (454, 502 CID), and Gen VI (454 CID) — the same gasket rail pattern is shared across all three generations.
