ls valve cover okay for b16a?

I need a valve cover for my b16 (it was painted red poorly by the previous owner).

Will an LS one from the junk yard work. (Just wondering if the clearances are the same, I have never opened one up)

Only B-Series Vtec Valvecovers will work on a B-Series Vtec motor

it won't work cause the studs won't line up. just get some aircraft remover to strip the paint. no elbow grease needed on your behalf.
