      Re: valve cover

      The only time I take my engine apart is when I have to fix something. Call me supersticious, but if it ain't broke, I leave it alone till it is. I know my luck, and if it ain't broke when I start, it will be when I'm done..

      You are supposed to have extra bolts when you are done right?

      shouldn't be any harder than removing the bolts and knocking it off with a rubber mallet.
      I leased Pontiac Wave from September 2006 to August 2011.

      Left over extra bolts= weight reduction=more speed
