The commanche I just picked up has a cracked valve cover. 87 4 banger. The crack is all the way around the bottom. I found some replacement plastic ones, but does anyone make an aluminum or steel one?
Thanks,
Dustin

No, one? I was afraid of that, plastic it is.

I looked for a while for a metal replacement for mine, but all I could find was plastic.

Nope!

One of the "if I build my on XJ business" things I want to do!

Maybe if I get some time, a sheetmetal fabbed one. On the other hand, who knows how long the 4 banger will be in there. Driving an XJ with an LT1 makes the mj's 4 seem like an anemic hamster. Either way, a metal replacement would be sellable.
