Hi, my name is joseph.

I'm from cardington ohio.

I drive a 1999 tiburon 2.0L.

I found these forums through google

I haven't done much to the car yet

I need to find out where to get a new valve cover can anyone help? Are a dealer or salvage yard my only choice?

 

Welcome. For the valve cover try EBay, that might be your best bet.

 

Yup, watch ebay for a while. I've been looking every now and then for a valve cover, and recently I found a Beta 2 (newer) cover that was in great condition for only $40 shipped! And now it looks like this hehe

That actually looks pretty damned good. Wanna see it installed. Post up a thread about it so questions can get asked.


As for getting a new valvecover my man, Ebay is a good bet, but I can regularly get a good one from the local junkyard for about $15 for both pieces. You may have to look a bit to find one in good shape though, and you'll want to clean the crap out of it before using it.


Welcome to the site!

 

Thanks for all the help guys much appreciated. Yeah I have been watching ebay for a couple days but so far nothing. Hopefully I can get one from the salvage yard. Thanks again for all the help. Oh and if you want to sell that beta 2 cover let me know lol.

 

Put a "WTB" thread up in our classifieds/wanted section my man.

This one is a stock Beta 1 valve cover. I'd suggest upgrading to the Beta 2 VC while you are at it.

Just make sure you get one from a NON CVVT engine, or it won't fit right.

 

I got one from ebay only 50 bucks shipped! Thanks saved me a lot of time
