LT4 valve cover replacement
I am in need of an LT4 driver side valve cover and can't find one anywhere. I have checked with GM and a few "older" car part companies and both were a NO GO. Does anyone know of a place that still has the driver side cover or at worst the set?
If that doesn't work what are my options when it comes to aftermarket valve covers?
Also, if you have a driver side cover or set out there for an LT4 that you can part with give me a holler

For real thanks though. Guess I was too narrow in my search

LOL...sorry...but if you search for LT4 covers that might have been the issue. LT1 is a bit more popular search feature, both covers are the same.

I think the problem is that the Corvette LT1/4 valve covers are different from the other GM cars that used the LT1 motors.
For the 95/96 Corvette, the right side valve cover has the oil fill cap and a vent tube (located on the side of the valve cover facing the intake manifold.
The left side has a shortened end that goes under the Alt/AC bracket. There are no vent or filler holes.

Yeah I have the part numbers, still a no go with all of the places online for them. Vette2vette didn't have anything either.
I was just hoping that someone was hoarding them and that civilization would collapse and I would find them in your garage scavenging for scrap Mad Max style

Yeah I did. Messaged the guy and they are the lt1 vette ones. If I have to I will pull the trigger on them just trying to find an actual lt4 set

They are the same no difference. I had a set for sale a couple of months ago and everybody wanted to steal them from me. Sold them so cheap I won't say how much.
