B18A to B18B valve cover?

Just so I can be clear before I order a part, can the B18B valve cover be swapped over to a B18A head? Any issues with this?

i dont think it will because of the little things that screw onto the head will be in the way…

i could be wrong

I did a little google searching. Several articles said that they are interchangable. B18A, B18B, and the B20 are all able to be swapped according to those. Lol, let’s hope so. If not I’m stuck with a $60 piece for nothing.

I have my original b18a cover on my b20 with no problems at all so it should work the other way too.

Well I’m shaveing and tucking the bay anyway so I’m sure I could figure out a relocation if needed. Thanks for the input.
