I installed a new black Triumphtune valve cover in my car today. I have to admit I nearly sent it back to the Moss reseller when I opened the box and looked it over. The casting was pretty marginal.

I'll bet it spews oil out around the filler cap. My Triumphtune valve cover, purchased a few years ago, apparently was a little more finished when it arrived but it was always wet with oil around th
