i was wondering what valve covers from 1987-1993 will fit on our cars? for some reason i am thinking that 87-91 are the same and 92-93 are the same... am i just going crazy?

also do the oil caps for these years all screw in?

reason im asking is i need taller than stock covers, but i still need the oil fill tube plus i need them cheap!
thanks!!!

yep, well its a cobra intake so im sure en edel or most other aftermarket ones would fit fine


it was actually just that metal screw in thingy that hooks up to a vaccume line in the back of the drivers side, besides that tho no other clearence issues, ive heard some people have problems with the alt but i have plenty of room

i actually took that out the last time i had the intake off and i took a grinder to the vaccum thingy and i angled it so that i wouldnt have clearance issues.... so i guess we will see?

so the consenses is that 87-93 vc's are all the same?
