Icon6 D16 Valve cover interchangibility

What valve covers will swap out with a 98 D16Y8? I want to polish one but it takes a while and i need to be able to drive my car around. Y7? Y5? Z6? That it? I just want to make sure it will fit and work properly.

i believe the y7 should be fine.

for example, check out this ebay posting. he listed if for the y7 and y8 because they are the same thing

Incorrect.

The Y7 and Y8 definitely interchange but so does the Z6!

You can also swap in a D17 valve cover. Just plug the dip stick hole.
