If you go too high with the Moly Lube, you could surpass the yield strength of them, enhancing the issue in the future.

I personally would just get the ARP L19's, and be done with it (that is what I ended up doing. L19's are in my parts cabinet waiting for the next time the head comes off).

As for the powder coating, I am always nervous about doing Valve Covers. They can be so picky due to the tiny little corners you have to get into, and the possible outgassing that could occur. We could definately do it, just have to bring it in already stripped and clean and ready to go. Expect to be here awhile though because I take a lot of time on Valve Covers because they are so picky. And there's a real good chance there will be some small blemishes. I'm not a pro, but it should still turn out pretty deng nice. If you wanted to, we'd have to setup a day, as my weekend schedule is always busy as crap. And I need to pick up some more powder I think.
