383 intake gasket and valve cover choice

@gdbuick, that's EXACTLY what I was talking about on the dog ear! It's a lot more disturbing than the spiderweb look around the lettering (which is just extra casting flash).

From a motorhead standpoint, I'm sorry your son is getting an introduction to the hobby like that. Sadly we all seem to be much more passionate about the Mopar brand than the company itself is. :elmer:
