The truth is that i never had the dust cover on my 700R4 for 20 years. Heat is the problem and more air is less heat. I don't drive on many dirt roads............... so my dust cover went in the metal bin I would wipe it out if i was under checking things

Well. That's good to know. I just didn't want to mess anything up. So you don't really need one?

You just need an inspection cover for a 700-R4. They are plastic, can be ordered from most of the Corvette aftermarket suppliers; you can also find them at most junk yards (that have old cars).
