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.

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!!!!

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.
