No thats the easiest thing of the engine to remove. but you will need a new gasket after.

Batmen, what did you do to your cover?? I would like ot do that to mine.

Wait did you just paint them??

Alright i painted my valve cover, well the whole block. While it was in. I also painted some other parts alluminum, like the plastic pieces: fuse box, and some other stuff. I hope the paint holds well and doesnt peel off when i wash it or just from driving. Any suggestions on that. Me, Plastic, and paint dont get along to well.

bake the paint on like they do when they paint the out side of the car

yea your 3sgte is cool but ill stick to my 7agte
well the heat shield i baked in the oven, the plastic pieces i got a heater blowing on them, and for the engine, i think ill try to bake it a little with a heat gun.
i should be done with the wires and junk tommorrow, so maybe ill post pics tommorrow night. i think its gonna look great, being i did most of it while the engine and stuff was still in.
The engine bay is not a doll... it doesn't get "dressed"... ;P
