There was no gasket under the vavle cover. I popped it off and there was nothing. Was kinda surprised. Oh well. I dont have oil shooting out every where yet LOL. Let alone the fact I forgot to cross bolt them down (stupid me). What breaks can be fixed :D

I was thinking of doing the same thing with my valve cover. I have all this blue paint left over from the calibers and drums maybe ill just use that.

Did you paint your Steeda intake also? The color match is like perfect if you didn't. Awesome job....
