I've been a member of this site for a little while now and I've been soaking up as much info as I can get. I asked around and found I needed to change my valve cover gasket so I while I had my valve cover off I decided to go ahead and paint it. So my engine went from
This:

to This:

in the past week! New header too! Sounds pretty good I like it!!
I also went ahead and painted my calipers,

I like them as well. I'm going with a black and blue theme if you haven't noticed.
And then here is an upclose on the valve cover

And that about rounds out my mods that I accomplished this past week!

Sure it's not your PCV...did you replace ur pcv valve and hose after you removed your valve cover...ur pcv might be bad...and you used rtv silicone to seal up the 90 degree corners to seal those little spots when putting ur valve cover back on right?

Yes I did you rtv silicone, I didn't replace the pvc valve tho. . Or hose. . How important would that be for me to replace?
