If your gonna do valve stem seals it involves removing the rocker covers, upperinlet manifold. Your best bet is to get the complete kit.
i.e rocker cover and valve stem seals. Normally if your valvestem seals need changing it's best to do the rocker gaskets too.
The inlet and throttlebody gaskets are steel and can be used again.
I did this awhile ago and was a bitch to make sure the rocker gaskets weren't pinching, as this can lead to oil flowing through the gap and causing your motors ecu to announce low oil pressure and shut down. Not to mention helpful people telling you your car is billowing smoke everywhere.
