just MAKE SURE TO, have them set at the corect torque specs. that is prolly one of the most important things u can do when doing this job... and i got mine from mopar, but i worked there at the time so it was not that bad in price...... i accually have a set if u were interested, but they have been sitting around, so it may take a while for them to pump up..... if u r interested let me know.......
i honestly had mine done in about 30 min... if that, i have an impact to get the valve cover off really fast.... then just take ur time and there will be spacers between the lifters... makesure u put them back together exactly the way u pulled them off......

no it is comming from the brass fitting i used to hook the stock pressure sender and an aftermarket one for my gauges... when i take the f'in thing off the little male-to-male brass fitting stays attached to the freakin block and i cant get a wrench in there to take it off so its just a real pain in the ***...i just need some help to like silicon the **** out of the fitting thats attached to the block so it stops freakin leaking.... :-\
