Well, I didn't realize these things are plastic, so I over tightened one of the bolts and cracked the valve cover in an effort to stop an oil leak. If you ever do this, you'll know it because it makes one heck of a cracking sound! :(

So does anyone have a passenger side valve cover?

I'll check ebay. Interesting... I thought it was some sort of plastic because of the way it cracked, but magnesium makes sense. Thanks!

Do a search on eBay using
corvette (1982,82)

and sort it by time listed I believe there was on in the last two days.

I saw a couple on the shelf at CnV a few weeks ago, they are probably over priced, but it's worth a call....

You can also try 20th street auto, I bet they have one too...

Thanks Dawg! I've been out of town for a while but I'll give both places a call now that I'm back.
