Have a 2000 civic; looking to change the valve cover. Does anyone have ANY reason why I should use a name brand for the cover? Or is it cool to use an aftermarket model?
All opinions would be helpful.

 

As long as it seals properly, and doesn't leak, I don't see a problem with it.

Exactly. This is going to be the defining factor in any valve cover.

 

like wise, who cares who makes it just as long as it does the job

 

get the spoon one it adds 55+ whp

 

i heard you have to run premium gas with it

 

yeah I forgot.. DO NOT USE THE SPOON VALVE COVER UNLESS U WANNA BUY PREMIUM!!!!
how else will u expect to get 55+ whp

 

XD

You guys are mean. Just get one that had baffles. Stock, Spoon of course since it's a painted stock one, Mugen, and a company that makes a carbon fiber valve cover has a baffle, don't know any beyond that.

 

there is really no reason to change your valve cover other than looks. and if you're going for looks, why would you use some cheap crap? get the good stuff

 

maybe he wants a VVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVvvvvvvvvvvvvtec cover yo.

 

ive got a brand name valve cover for you...


HONDA

 

Why spend yo money on a valve cover you already have, why not use that money for performance parts......

 

i got a good reason to buy an aftermarket cover......

wait i forgot...

 

Use stock. Sand it down and paint it.

 

In the very near future I will be offering powder coating services specifically for Honda valve covers. Email me for more information.
