Christopher New Guy C Joined: Aug 2000 Posts: 29 Beverly Hills, CA	Took the valve cover off my '37 truck to clean it up and paint. Lying on top of the rocker arms is a "pad" running the full length of the assembly. Is this normal? The engine was running fine. Should I leave this in or replace it? Where can I find anew one.? Thanks, CAB
