[V8] Valve cover gasket

[Coleman, David]

One doesn't pry magnesium anywhere.  Did you remove the two bolts that receive the black plastic covers? If so, and all the acorn nuts are removed, use a rubber mallet to dislodge and lift the cover up. 

HTH,
Dave

Hello,

I am trying to change the valve cover gaskets on my 90V8Q and don't know 
where to place a tool to pry the valve covers off.  Also, the 4 screws that 
hold the black plastic covers over the spark plugs are missing the plastic 
screwheads - do they sell the screws only or do they sell the covers/ screws 
together.  Thanks for any help.

Rich
