lol thats where i got it from.. i vaguely remember some local ricer buying a valve cover on ebay for some strange reason... and he informed me that said valve cover fit all twin cams.. unreliable source.. sure.. but i think thats where i got it from.. i KNOW his physicaly fit.. so i assume it was one of said interchangeable ones..

using b series throttle bodies on d series intake manifolds is possible. same pattern is i remember correctly. someone will have to correct me if i'm wrong.
b series vtec and non vtec valve covers are not interchangeable.
non vtec valve covers may be (example b18b1 on b18a1)
dumb yet useful info on valve covers.
in 98 the non vtec valve covers changed in design, prior to 98 they had a similar design to the b18a's.

No need the Y8 Manifolds for the D16 seriers are great manifolds, puy a y8 with a larger throttle bodie and you see and feel a decent gain, when I get some extra chash this is one of the things I am planning on doing.
