Hello,



I was reading an article on Y-Blocks the other day and it stated that the rubber grommets for the valve covers were supposed to be installed under the valve cover.



I had never heard this before so I looked in a couple of parts catalogs and sure enough it show them in an exploded view with them being installed first on the stud, followed by the valve cover, washer and nut on the outside.



Do any of you install it this way? How would you know how far down to install it on the stud and leave enough pressure so the gasket sealed.



I can see how it would prevent over tightening and crushing the metal valve cover and maybe sealing better on the inside as opposed to the outside.



Any thoughts??
