Valve cover torque specs??????
Sorry, couldn't find the numbers in any of the cam installs. Also do I need to change the gasket?

31 (+/-4) inch pounds.

As long as the gasget is in good shape you should be able to reuse it.

yea the torque specs are low like 31-35 INCH pounds. Its low I think because the valve cover expands a little bit. If its too tight it may end up cracking.
