Default Valve Cover Gaskets; R & R

1990/L98/350: I posted this in the C-4 section but no response. Can one of you teckiestell me the "Chilton Labor Time" or an "estimated" time to remove and replace the valve cover gaskets on my stock, 90/L98? I'm an average "shade tree" mech. with all the tools. Thanks, j

I wouldn't think it would take over an hour to do both sides. Hood open, to hood closed. ( depends on clean up and prep required)
You may have to move some stuff, but it's not really complicated. Just don't get in a hurry.

Thanks Starship. I have a c-3and know its a pretty simple task there.Opening the hood on the c-4 is intimidating to me. There's stuff everwhere, especially on the left side. You have given me more confidence, but we will see. Thanks again

You're welcome. One step at a time, then move on. I'm sure that you'll do just fine.
