or

Good price on the whole set.

If you want just a valve cover gasket, $14.95

or cut your own from gasket material, using the cover or old gasket as a guide. should be able to pick up a roll of stuff for $5 I would think, and that way you could make smaller ones you need from the left over stuff.

I get mine off ebay. I get a couple at a time. They are around $7. Not as thick as the oem but thick enough to work good.
