4WD
Hardware Aluminum Valve Cover
for an 258 Engine
One mans trash is another mans treasure. I am always amazed what can
be found on the internet and in this case, I found me a perfectly
good 4WD aluminum valve cover for only $30!! Considering that my factory
plastic cover leaked like a sieve, I bought this thing right away.
In order to install it, I had to order a replacment hardware kit from
4WD.com which cost $12.95 and came with a new cork gasket and everything
needed to install it... or so I thought. Once I removed the factory
valve cover, I found that the holes on the cylinder head were threaded
for a 1/4"-20 thread and the bolts I got with the kit were 5/16"-18.
Also, the two holes on the driver side which everyone said I would
need to drill and tap were already threaded. Needless to say, I didn't
have to do any drilling or tapping and this install was a piece of
cake to do. Off with the old and on with the new.
