Ok I was at this website www.noahsneon.com and he has a 2000+ valve cover on his 1996 SOHC. I am replacing the Valve cover gasket on my car this summer and was going to be repainting the valve cover while I was at it. He says that the 2nd gen valve cover doesn't spit oil into the intake manifold. Is this true, and does this help with anything? And what would I have to do to make it fit? Is it a direct bolt-on? And where would I have to re-route that hose that connects to the top of the valve cover. I have a 1998 SOHC, if that makes any difference. TIA

 

Thats not what I hear. I hear the 2nd gens do it as well.
