Valve cover gasket

Post by crawler440ic » Thu Nov 06, 2008 10:14 am

I recently purchased a 1958 440ic with loader. I am doing some maintenace on it and need to replace the valve cover gasket and the grommet that the bolt goes through to hold the valve cover on. Where would I get these items. Do I need to make my own gasket? Also, where is a good place to get a rebuild kit for my carb, TSX-768? Thanks

Look on this website by clicking on "Parts Listings". Carb kits are listed but I did not see valve cover gaskets/grommets. Says to call Lavoy for individual engine parts. His number is at the bottom left of the parts page or send him a pm.

I am currently out of stock on 440 carb kits, should have more in the middle of next week. I may have one of the gaskets for the bolt, you can also use a larger diameter o-ring in a pinch.
