Corrado valve cover gasket in my 8V

[drew@dyermaker.cs.uoguelph.ca (drew)]

You can use the Corrado gasket (or the 1.8 A3 gasket) and all you have to
do is change to shoulderless studs as the neoprene gasket has metal
washers built into to prevent the gasket from being overtightened, and
these washers interfere with the shoulders used with the cork-gasket
studs.

I use them on all my motors, gas and diesel - they don't leak until
they've been removed and reinstalled about 4 or 5 times.  Well worth the
cost IMHO.
