valve cover question

[92acurapower]

hey a question. I have a 92 acura integra rs 1.8L dohc non-vtec engine. i was wondering if there's any way i could replace the valve cover i have for a b series valve cover without having to do a swap.

Yea you can. Just search for ls valve cover on ebay

[92acurapower]

will any b series valve cover fit on any b series engine. for example can i put a vtec valve cover on a non-vtec head

NO, only LS with LS. why would u want to put a VTEC VC on ur LS anyways? u dont have VTEC, so y rep. it? anyways it wont fit

plz don't put a vtec valve cover on. it like when those kids on the street have the NOS stickers but o NOS.

sorry let me explain. i'm not trying to rep vtec without having it. i just want the valve cover look. i'll definitely scratch off the vtec logo. the only valve cover replacements i could have is a moroso or mugen valve covers but they don't look that good. i like the vtec look without the vtec logo of course. it comes with the fuse cover which i could crome and that would give it a better shine. and by the way i have an 92 integra rs not ls. here's links to pics to explain,

doesn't matter if its rs or ls or gs or se they are all the same b18a engine. only other usdm engine that year was the b17a in the gs-r.

you will probably get better results if you search for an ls vc because the non-vtec b18a is commonly refered to as an ls engine.

Look where the bolt holes are on both valve covers. It's not going to bolt up to your head, you're stock with a non vtec one. And RS, GS, and LS all have the same motor so it doesn't matter, most people just refer to it as the LS motor. Just strip your RS valve cover and repaint it the color you want.

ok thanks i'll guess im stuck with it. i'll just paint it and do the dress up around it.

here is a good website to dress it up http://johnmonnin.netfirms.com/PolishingValve.html
the valve cover is not for our car but same principle.
