WANTED: Moroso Valve cover for 8v VW.
« on: September 15, 2009, 12:47:44 pm »
like the title states, i want a sweet finned aluminum valve cover. honestly, doesnt have to even be moroso. i just want something sexier than a stock stamped steel one. might also consider a G40/60 valve cover too. just something different. will trade parts for one, or pay cash, doesnt matter to me.

im not sure. there the ones that dont have any brackets or anything on them right? im looking for the cleanest look i can get. i just have a stock 1.8 digi valve cover on it right now. what you looking to get out of it? i wont pay a rediculious price, but something reasonable.

thats fine. i kinda decided that im gonna go custom. and wasnt it dan that had the G60 cover? but i am gonna bust out the old tig gun and set it up. get practiced up. probably build a 5cyl VC at the same time. wouldnt be very hard to build 2 at the same time. and the best part, ive got plenty of scrap aluminum to work with.
