    Is there any Beneifit to using a Billet Valve Cover over Stock?

    Hello I was wondering if there was any benefit to having a billet valve cover over the stock?

    My valve cover gasket is leaking and needs to be replaced so I was thinking of replacing my stock cover with a billet if it warrants the price for one.

    I do run a stock over a 369sxe compound set up so any info would be appreciated greatly!

    I just don't want to throw a way money where it could be used some where else

    I have since took off the oil bypass kit cause the cap was leaking and went back to the stock oil cap.

    I highly doubt it. I've changed valve covers on previous engines and it was merely an aesthetic change unless you are wanting to stop buying gaskets or something like that.

    The stock valve covers require a special gasket where some of the aftermarket covers for engines are ground flat so you have good mating surfaces and can create your own simple gasket out of cork, rubber, silicone, etc.
