I just installed one of these on a customer car and thought it looked good enough to pass on.
We have a supply of red and black powder coated valve cover for the following years.
90-93
94-97
99-00
01-05 (except Mazdaspeed)
Cost is $100 plus a $50 core exchange.
Supplies limited.
Contact us a Track Dog Racing if interested. 214-340-9797

If only the AC at the house hadn't gone out yesterday.....
Check with us when you're ready. We try to keep a selection on hand.
You should do one in gunmetal gray.
Pretty! I may just have to call you guys...
If I don't have all these CEL problems ........!
Nice. You should grab some of the valve covers that don't have the timing belt guard on it. I'd buy one of those :)
Same here. I need a 1.6l without the timing belt cover. Price?Quote:

3. You sell cover without front like your customers asked.

If you have adjustable cam gears, you need the cut cover to adjust them.Quote:

If you have an interest in something beyond that, call us and we will see what we can do.
I have a few bare covers available. The labor involved in modifying one would affect the price unless you wished to do the work.
Isn't there another car out there with a valve cover that fits our car that doesn't have the cast cover on it?? I've seen it at a Wed. night GTG can't remember what the guy told me it came off of. It was another Mazda.
If it's the guy I'm thinking (I need to call him about my intercooler pipes still too), I want to say it was from a 1.6l Capri. Almost positive actually. His name is Josh...has the flat black vinyl wrapped NA.Quote:

EDIT: Found a pic of the one I'm talking about. And I saved it on my phone as "capricover" so I would imagine I listened to him correctly when I took that picture. Hope he doesn't mind that I posted a pic of his motor here.

The 1990-1994 Mazda Protege LX used our 1.8 with a cover similar to the one posted by Rob.Quote:
