yeah thats what i currently have on my bkr7eku's i just wasnt sure if it was better to bring it down to .026 or .024 because people had good results with those too. ill keep them where i have them since i havent had any problems! thanks a lot for that, and i still need to get that MAF off of you, now that my car is drivable it makes it easier!

and the valve cover hardware is M6x1.00 with a length of 20mm, and i also used a small m6 washer too, the correct way to do it would be to swap it to the original obd1 hardware which would be studs and nuts. but theres no reason to haver to do that if you can use the same size bolt as before, just get a shorter one thatll fit. i tried taking the hardware out of the obd1 plastic valve cover and using just the bolt but they were way too long, so shorten that length and it worked perfectly for me! been rippin on it since and havent had the slightest leak so im happy with the outcome, plus it was cheap
