Shes so fat when she stepped on the scale it said " One at a time please"
Shes so fat when she wore high heels she struck oil!!

My wife would concur.

Well, at least @eldubb440 got the pig latin joke...
Guess I needed to toss in a "she's so fat" in there too, apparently....

She was so fat, her blood type was RAGU.
She was so fat, when she got a shoeshine she had to take their word for it.
She was so fat, when she stood on a corner, a cop would come along and tell her to break it up.
She was so fat, she gave her measurements in "radius" and "degrees".

She's so fat, when she talks to herself, it's a long distance call!

She's so fat, she's got smaller fat women orbiting around her!

That is some funny ****. I actually laughed out loud at that one. THREAD WINNER.

She's so fat, her gravity pulls the earth to herself.

She's so fat, she became the earth's eight continent.

you smelt it, you dealt it

The OP does for starters, I'm guessing...

So it's all Ed's fault.

I'm with the Kern. Manifolds look and perform like **** compared to quality headers. No valve cover clearance issues to boot!
BTW Gus, it's "I".

A grammar nazi. DILIGAF about headers, yeah, hitting 6 grand rpm on the street, right?

DILIGAF is way over used these days Gus. YAAFDS is more up to date and far more appropriate, wouldn't you agree?

 

[dadsbee]

GTFU is probably the most appropriate around here these days......

Curious. Are you making your own? What material works best?

Anyway,................
.......... there's this gal that cooks up head gaskets............

Overused, but appropriate in this case.

Did a mock up using Mopar cast valve covers and Felpro gaskets MS 90425. I cant remove the passenger valve cover unless I loosen the manifold. The extended gasket makes it too close to the valve cover. Any ideas?

Hi @1968rt
Did you find a solution? Considering the same gaskets.
Do the MS 90425 gaskets protect the valve cover paint?
Thanks, Ben

 

[1968rt]

Yes, I figured it out. You can not use studs on the two front lower holes. The studs were preventing the valve cover from seating. Installed bolts after the valve cover was seated. Will try and post a picture later.
