Valve cover differences?
I am looking to spruce up by B18B1 and am looking for a cleaner valve cover. Everything I see on eBay are the VTEC or Mugen (VTEC) covers. Do I have any choices for a non-VTEC valve cover? What are the differences between the two? I see that the PCV valve comes into the valve cover on the LS but not on the GSR, it also looks like the bolt patters are different. Anyone have any ideas where I can get a replacement, that's not an OBX pos. Thanx.

Re: Valve cover differences?
i believe the vtec covers are different from the non vtec covers. so a B20, B18A, B18b will all swap. A B18c, B18c5, b16, and B17 will all swap.

Re: Valve cover differences?
Yes...but where might I find a Red non-VTEC valve cover that not an OBX or back yard special? And can a spark plug wire cover be put onto a non-VTEC cover? Or is this option only available for the cool guys who have VTEC heads?

Re: Valve cover differences?
Yup, just to back up everyone else, it won't fit. They have different bolt patterns. And powder coating is the way to go for sure. Just make sure to check out some examples from a powder coating place, to pick the correct red color; there are quite a few out there.
