Fel-Pro Valve Cover Gasket Set for Honda Civic/HR-V/Acura ILX VS50741R — Cork-Rubber Complete Repair Kit

If your engine is showing signs of oil seepage around the valve cover or you’re rebuilding the top end, this Fel-Pro gasket set gives you the vehicle-specific parts needed to complete the repair. Designed for the realities of worn or imperfect sealing surfaces, the set uses a cork-rubber blend and includes every necessary component so you don’t have to source additional pieces during installation.

Which vehicles and engines does this gasket set fit?

The VS 50741 R matches multiple Honda and Acura applications built on the same 4-cylinder platform. Check fitment for model year specifics before purchase to confirm compatibility with your engine code and valve cover layout.

• Fits 2006–2015 Honda Civic (selected engines)
• Fits 2016–2020 Honda HR-V models
• Fits 2013–2015 Acura ILX
• Designed for common four-cylinder valve-cover geometries used across these models

How does it handle imperfect or worn sealing surfaces?

Fel-Pro engineered the gasket from a conformable cork-rubber formulation that compresses to fill gaps, surface irregularities, and minor warpage. That flexibility helps maintain a consistent seal under thermal cycling and vibration without requiring perfect mating surfaces.

• Cork-rubber mix tolerates surface imperfections better than rigid gaskets
• High conformability minimizes leak paths at bolt holes and corners
• Maintains compression across temperature changes for extended service life

What’s included and why is it useful for a repair job?

The kit is assembled to be job-complete: Fel-Pro supplies the valve cover gasket and any related seals and pieces that technicians commonly need when replacing or servicing the cover. That reduces downtime and prevents multiple trips for missing parts.

• Valve cover gasket molded to match OEM geometry
• Associated seals and O-rings where required for a full repair
• Packaged as a set so you can replace all wear items at once

How was this gasket tested for real-world use?

Fel-Pro validates parts with on-vehicle testing to confirm fit and sealing performance under realistic conditions. These validation steps help ensure the gasket resists oil leaks and holds up during normal driving cycles after installation.

• On-vehicle validation to check fitment and sealing behavior
• Durability testing simulates thermal and vibration stresses
• Manufactured to meet professional repair shop expectations

This valve cover gasket set is aimed at DIY mechanics, independent repair shops, and fleet technicians who need a reliable, vehicle-specific sealing solution. If you’re replacing a leaking valve cover gasket on compatible Honda or Acura models—or performing a top-end service and want a complete kit that fits and performs—Fel-Pro VS 50741 R supplies the materials and tested design professionals trust for long-term sealing.
