You should use sealant only on the four points. Scrape off the old sealant and put new sealant only in those locations.

This section: which bolts get each torque setting? There's two numbers here for "valvecover bolts", but no designation as to which ones are which? It appears someone else at the end of this thread asked the same question, but I saw no answer. Just clarify which set of bolts get each torque setting and we're set. :) Thanks!

Awesome post though...great work.

Be VERY CAREFUL with the plastic, pull/tug gently. It is snapped in.
