Again, waste of money. The vavle cover gaskets are probably not hte issue, it's the seal in the RTV between the breather and valve covers that leaks. While it is nto a bad idea to change the gaskets as well, the real issue is the RTV-type crap they use between breathers and covers.
I am no mechanic, but I did mine myself - have not put them back on cause it is COLD here in North Georgia and my car sits in an unheated stall!
