FAQs
Q: Why replace the OEM valve cover?
A: Stock covers are prone to cracking, leaking, and poor sealing under heat or pressure. This billet cover is stronger, thicker, and designed to handle performance or heavy-duty use.
Q: Does this include a new gasket?
A: No, a new gasket is not included. You’ll need to reuse or replace the factory gasket during installation.
Q: Can I retain the OEM fuel filter bracket?
A: No. This cover does not have the factory standoffs. Bracket or harness modifications are required if you plan to reuse the OEM fuel filter mount.
Q: What are the PCV options?
A: The cover has two fittings—allowing you to reroute gases to a catch can, vent them to atmosphere, or adapt to your custom setup.
Q: Does this product comply with emissions regulations?
A: Since it modifies the PCV system, compliance depends on your local laws. Always check regulations before installation.
Q: Will it improve engine performance?
A: Indirectly. By preventing leaks and reducing oil vapor in the intake, it helps maintain turbo efficiency, intake cleanliness, and overall reliability.
Q: Is installation difficult?
A: It’s a direct bolt-on to the cylinder head, but due to PCV and bracket modifications, professional installation is recommended.
Q: What finish options are available?
A: Black, red, and silver anodized finishes, offering both durability and visual appeal.
Q: Can I use this as an OEM replacement?
A: Yes, it’s a suitable upgrade when replacing cracked, leaking, or warped OEM covers, even for daily use.
Q: Does it work with aftermarket intakes?
A: Yes. If deleting the PCV port, pairing with a PCV-less intake horn is recommended for a cleaner setup.
