pry out the valve cover gasket or vale cover? they dont require any prying to take off. you should be able to just lift them off.

Yeah it lifted right off but that was after I moved the ac bracket. It was attached to the alt so I had to take off the alt to get to the last screws. I guess the 85 is set up a bit different cause my friends 88 was different
