so i want to grind off where it says 16 valve on my sr, just to keep it under the radar y'know

does anyone know if i can do that without complications or is it stamped through, cuz i would hate to just grind a bunch of holes in my valve cover

Now, I don't know if the SR VC's are made out of the same material as the KA VC"s.
If they are be careful.

The KA VC's bind up the disks as if it were made of all aluminium. But, it sparks... Which aluminium doesn't... So it's a weird material...

Anyways... the first 2 disks I used shattered (yeah, they were brand new) into oblivion...

Just a little FYI...

It's been done.

Though it won't do much.

Just take off your coilpack cover and you're fine.

I did my KA valve cover with a bench grinder and then used some metal files to smooth it up.

It's not the "twin cam 16 valve" that's gonna catch their eye. It's the "intercooler turbo"

if a cop pops your hood, theres a 80% chance he knows what the SR looks like.
