parts for valve seal replacement
I'm considering to replace the valve seals for my '89 formula 305 TBI, now that I am burning a lot more oil.
I would like to know where to purchase the necessary items, and what are the particular part names and brands recommended for the job.
thanks

I've always just gone to NAPA AP store and asked for seals, never got concerned with the brand.
You may want to try the umbrella type if the guides are worn.
You're stock valve cover gaskets should still be good (the joys of CB heads
), but you may need to replace a lock nut or two, if the old ones don't tighten up firmly.
