[hierro0430]

hey guys im about to buy a valve cover for my girlfriend's civic. it os for single head cam, but i want to know if mugen makes this valve cover

I think there are fake Mugen SOHC valve covers out there...

 

[hierro0430]

you are right, but i want to know if Mugen ever made it?

no, mugen does NOT make a valve cover for the d series.

off the top of my head, i cant think of anything they make specifically for a d series

 

[hierro0430]

thank you guys i just want to make sure abou that.

just fyi
even if mugen did make a real valve cover for the d series, i'd recommend a knockoff

the mugen valve cover for the b series runs in the neighborhood of ~$800.... for under the hood cosmetics, it's not worth it what so ever

and double

0 hp gain and 0 real weight savings. It's a piece of underhood jewelry.

soooo...... why not get a *5th gen VTEC cover instead and paint it wrinkle red? IMHO That looks pretty good too.

Pretty....but pointless.

Mugen did make a valvecover for an SOHC Honda motor, but it was way back in the day...this is one of those uber rare items you never ever see or hear of. but if you were to go to Mugen's Main Shop/office in Japan, and browse through their little museum, you would find it there. i have a pic of it on another forum i mod for...i'll get it on here when i get the chance...all the other SOHC Mugen VC's you see out there nowadays are not real though.

That was actually just discussed the other day in another forum on ClubCivic. There's a pic there too (of the old SOHC Mugen cover).

cool. i knew i remembered correctly...saves me the hassle of finding the pic, lol
