Quality product. Fixed my 2004 Silverado oil consumption problem. No more smoke on start up.

Before installing this "updated / revised design" valve cover I was losing approximately 1 quart of oil per 300-400 miles.In addition, at start-up I would sometimes get a plume of white smoke. I mean a PLUME. People probably thought it was a Cheech and Chong Movie going on nearby......like that.Smoke cloud would go away completely after 10-15 seconds.The vehicle ran perfectly during that time with no external leaks or burning smells.The 1st indicator of a problem was literally the indicator. "Oil Pressure Low; Oil Level Low".Checked oil and it was around a quart to 1.5 low. That's when my research, testing and diagnosis began.I'm no mechanic, but from research I understand the problem with the old valve cover is its ability to retain oil in the upper section, allowing oil to be vacuumed up into the PVC, then ending up in the combustion chamber, then settling when I park, igniting at start-up causing the smoke cloud of burning oil.This new valve covers internal design allows oil to drain properly from the upper section back down to the rockers, not allowing excessive oil build up that can be vacuumed out and into the combustion chamber.This valve cover comes with a gaskets and grommets. However, I changed mine to new Fel-Pro gaskets and grommets. Fel-Pro has a great reputation in the gasket world.After the install. Drove 400 miles. No smoke at any start-ups and ZERO oil consumption. It seems the problem is solved.Easy 30 minute install with a 10mm and 8mm w/ torque wrench.Valve cover 8mm - Torque to 106 inch lbs or 9 ft lbs or 12 nm). 10 mm is for the coil pack removal, no torque just get then tight. There's tons videos....Good Luck

I was loosing oil around the gasket but also thru the faulty design of the original valve cover on my 2004 Silverado 1500 4x4 (5.3). This came with the gasket, fit perfectly and now I have no leaking gasket and no consumption of oil thru the valve cover pvc vent. I did not make any modifications. Just installed this as it came since it is the new design. I was using alot of oil and now the only noticeable loss is the tiny drip from what I believe is coming from the rear main. Very happy with these covers.

Fits well on a 2004 GMC Sierra 5.3 T Vortec. Good quality gasket and easy install, first time replacing, 75 minute install, when taking your time to clean old gasket surface on engine and vacuum up old squirrel acorns. Great Product! Engine runs better!

Changed it out in 15-20 mins. Exact fit and it fixed my oil consumption issue. No more smoke on start up.
