    Default series 1 valve covers.

    Salutations and that.

    It has been suggested that I purchase a set of VN series 1 valve covers as they are made from alloy, but appearently they have a breather hole situated on the side of the cover.
    As these covers will be going on to a later model car, is there anything that the VN-VP boys know of that I might use to fill said hole, I figured you fellas would probably know best, eh!

    Thanks heaps.

    i'm not 100% but couldn't you put a nice little breather in it

    Also i highly sugest polishing them as said above, i once polished a set and they looked sweet. They are also not hard to polish as most of the surfaces are flat and if you cant be bother polishing in the grooves just fill them in with red or black paint
