I went thru this when I started racing the GT6. I'm using the tin valve
cover with a 1" breather connection brazed in all the way at the back by the
#6 exhaust rocker. I just use the stock cork gasket with no sealant and it
works pretty well. I did an aluminum cover the same way with a thin nut on
the inside but it was tough to stop leaking and I finally abandoned it.
Our own Justin Wagner will soon have superb Silicone gaskets for the sixes so
that is worth waiting for.
