Most car owners like to avoid unnecessary oil leaks so shy away from these types of parts. You might try CIP's and see what they have.

You'll have to get the stock ones chrome plated. There are finned aluminum bolt-on covers available for the Type IV but I'm not sure of fit/finish/quality.

There's a really good dune buggy & kit car (but mostly dune buggy) forum here at TheSamba plus www.DuneBuggyArchives.com is a GREAT resource for buggy owners and builders.

I have a buddy with a buggy project and it's getting a big Type IV motor for power.

Welcome!!
