Any 4.0 (1987-2001) valve cover will work for your 89. If you use an 87-90 you won't have to change anything. If you use a 91-95 you will just have to change the CCV hoses that come out. If you use a 96-01 you will have to get the "reusable composite gasket" with the valve cover. I personally run a 98's on my 1990 and love it. However, some argue that the older cast covers (87-95) are better than the newer ones. I see it both ways, I'm just a big fan of trying to be a 97+ poser.

Quick pic here...you can't see it real well but this is what a 98's looks like. Like I said I like the way these newer ones look, but to each their own.
