good frickin luck. I have had a WTB post for one of these for a couple of months with no dice so far.

Haven't really seen much for S14 notch top valve covers available to use to modify either. Hell, I would probably trade my baller Exedy Triple Plate Clutch for one if I could find one.

worth a try while I wait to see about getting one made. I gotta call my shop up Monday and double check on the price and then I found a s14 cover nearby fairly cheap. Unless someone sales one to me straight out that's the route I will end up taking.

God luck

Touge Factory and MA Motorsports are the two legit sources for the conversion that I know of. I think TF charges $250 and MA charges $ 180.

I wrote to MA yesterday so I will see what they say prob Monday and I think I am going to hold off of TF until my guy gets back to me. Hes pretty good with fab work so I think he will do a good job...as long as he thinks he will do a good job. I don't think he would want to source 2 more valve covers if he messes up so I will make sure he knows what hes doing before he makes a costly mistake for himself. For all I know he has done it a couple times already....I just didn't get into specifics when I last talked to him. Thanks though and good luck for you too.

Get ahold of Luis Gonz at Fineline tuning. He's not on zilvia but he is on Facebook. He made two for me and I think he made one for Wayne / omikron
Mine is fucking awesome and you can't see the weld unless you have the cover off and look underneath. Top quality work.

Oh well, too late now. I get the cover back today but good for others who look at this thread. More options are always better.

I still have some clean up to do and its still need to dry/cure but over all not too bad. Ill prob end up stripping it later and repainting but for now it will do.
