A Question

I am assuming lots of you have checked out the Wings West MP3 project car. If you look at the pictures here there is one showing the engine which has a nice looking yellow cover over the block. I believe it's made by STR? I could be wrong though. Anyone have any ideas where you can get one of these?

you mean this thing?


that is the stock MP3 cover, painted yellow to match the car. you will need to do a little riggin to get it to mount to your valve cover, and it can only be bought from your friendly neighborhood mazda dealer.

OR you can obtain the valve cover for the MP3 which had the mounting spots for the cover cast into it.

Oh, I see...that either sounds expensive or a lot of work...or I'm just lazy...probably the lazy thing. I figured it was a bolt on accessory. It looks pretty cool though...thanks for the info.
