valve covers from Colt and Hyundai
« on: January 13, 2004, 09:34:26 pm »
I was at a wreck yard and noticed a few colts and Hyundai's with a 4G63.  Would the valve covers fit our Turbo Engines?

The valve cover from the colt looks just like the valve cover from our talons.

It is the same, Hyundai licensed the 4G63 engine design for their Sonata, and another car, I think.  Same design, but production quality might be different.

You mean to say that the Hyundai or Colt covers are inferior?

No.

The Hyundai one has HYUNDAI forged across the top of it.
