Will anyone please take a picture of their vtec b series valve cover? I need both, pics of the top and pics of the underside. The bolts for the spark plug cover need to be removed and the pics need to be fairly close up. I'm wanting to find out how the posts for the spark plug cover are attached to the valve cover so that I can make a custom spark plug cover for a DOHC ZC motor. Thanks.

If you can't take a pic of the underside, a close up pic of the posts without the nuts on them will probably suffice.

Don't feel like taking pics, but I'll tell you the post that attach the plug cover aren't really attached to the valve cover. They just pass through the valve cover. They are attached to the cam cover (not the tech. name). that long stud passes through the valve cover. A nut then tightens down to the valve cover. Then you put on the spark plug cover and attach the second nut.
If you are wanting to make a custom piece he easiset way would probably be to drill your valve cover and attach the bolts, making sure they don't touch or interfere with the moving parts clearance. Just have the studs facing up, cut a cam cover and attach it just like a B.
That's my off the top of the head theory
