That looks really cool. I'm thinking about respraying my D16A6 valve cover crinkle red. Nice to see someone else has the same idea. What kind of engine is that? I don't recognize the valve cover.

can you use regular spraypaint? It doesn't get too hot on the valve cover?

thanks, i was originally just gonna use regular red engine paint but man im sure glad i didnt. the engine is a dohc zc.

sorry, i couldnt figure out how to multiquote. im not sure if you can use regular spray paint, id rather use a high temp paint just to be safe.

Thanks. I am new to hondas (but not to automobiles) and not all that familiar with the diff engine types. Looks like a valve cover respray moved up on my to-do list. Looks great bro!!!!

do you guys take the cover off before you guys paint it? btw is look very nice

loosk good, I dunno about that header though.

sick79

yea, i took the valve cover off when i painted it. but, its a good time to check the valve lash since the cover is off.

i wish i had the cash to afford a better header, but it definatly is better than the stock manifold. that thing was fugly.

ED9man

i wouldn't sweat it, the exhaust doesn't care how it looks.

let me take a wild shot,is it a chikara header?
