Sick of these BBK valve covers!!

Ive had BBK's on my truck for 80K and they never leaked a drop. But i did a lot of work before i put them on. First i made baffles for both sides. Just like the stock ones have. Only i did a better job then the OEM's. Also i drilled and added needle bearings as pins to hold gasket while i installed them. Like 8 pins per side. Then glued the gaskets down to covers. Let me guess, right side leaked. That's the hard side. Right side is why i drilled and installed pins. I have a thread here on the install. If i remember right. I say don't try and install these covers unless your a killer mechanic or you have your engine out. Very hard to install them while engine is in. If i had to do it over. I probably wouldn't buy BBK's. But they can be installed with out leaking and thats a fact. :)

I aint doing all of that.. lol.. BBK really should look at machining a groove into the flange, to accept factory gaskets.. This would solve all of their problems.
