It's really entertaining when an innocent topic gets a bit edgy. That said, I've never used "Permatex The Right Stuff Gasket Maker 29208". I am active on other forums dealing with modern high performance drivetrains and have read about others using it with great results. From what I understand it's thicker than the products we've seen in the past and does a very good job of sealing. If I were going to use it I'd put a bead on the clean head, then place a thin coat of Vaseline or grease on the valve cover (makes disassembly easy), assemble and get on with life. My guess is it'd be fine.

Don, let us know how this works.

Good Luck, RonR
