Abstract
A valve cover gasket assembly for an automotive engine includes a rigid core having a plurality of pairs of notches, with each pair comprising one notch on the inner edge of the core and one notch on the outer edge. The assembly further includes a rigid stop member for each pair of notches, each stop member having a portion defining a fastener hole and a spaced apart lug. The stop members are secured to the core by engagement with the notches. When secured in this manner, the portion of each stop member defining the fastener hole is offset laterally from the core. An elastomeric envelope having elastomeric beads is applied over the core and a portion of each stop member, so that the beads extend continuously around the length of the assembly.
