Glen, like Javier said except: I'd go with a Honda gasket, though if Vesrah makes one I have had good luck using their gaskets in the past. Also if the gasket has a ridge to hold it in place on the valve cover you can use grease to keep it from falling out. I use the non hardening permatex on rubbe
