Hey guys, Im buying a set of Fox Body Valve covers from Andy ( Rio5.0 ) He said theres a few of you guys on here running them on your 94-95's. Just wondering if there pretty much a simple swap from the stock covers or if there was any fitment issues at all. Im not sure what Im going to do w/ them yet, Prob just polish them up more to see if I can get anymore shine out of them and then drown them in clear coat :D . Pic Inclosed.

If you want to polish them, i recomend clear coating them also, or else they wont look pretty for very long.

They are a direct bolt on,although u might need to pull the oil baffle to clear larger rocker arms.


Thats good then, I do plan on going w/ bigger roller rockers when I do the heads but Im only going to 1.6's
 
which heads are you going to use?

Depending on which brand you may need thicker valve cover gaskets... I know i did on my TFS heads w/1.6 svo RR's with those valve covers.

But i have a friend that used AFR heads and he had no issues at all with his Fox bodied valve covers..

Im going w/ Trick flow Heads when Im ready to buy some.
 
You also need to keep in mind different heads may be taller. On my car I have gt-40 X heads and they are alot taller than stock heads and the back of my alternator was hitting the valve cover, didnt do it with the stock heads. Obviously its a simple fix, but just something to look out for.
