Valve Cover
Valve Cover Shopping Guide
The engine valve cover is an essential protective component for diesel engines. It shields crucial parts within the valve chamber—such as valves, springs, and rocker arms—from contaminants and damage. Choosing the right valve cover can make a big difference in your engine's performance, reliability, and longevity.
At SPELAB, we understand the importance of both functionality and aesthetics. We design our Cummins billet valve covers in-house to offer the best balance of fit, finish, and functionality, while keeping your budget in mind. Our valve covers are made from aircraft-grade 6061-T6 aluminum and come equipped with all stainless steel fasteners. Explore our range of valve cover products to find the perfect match for your diesel engine today!

Our innovative products
- Reinforced and Reliable: SPELAB valve covers have a reinforced aluminum inner structure that exceeds conventional market standards in terms of durability. Our materials and structure can withstand temperatures up to 600°F and pressures of up to 120 PSI, handling even the most demanding conditions with ease.
-
Integrated CCV Filter: The valve covers are designed with direct CCV (Crankcase Ventilation) filter ports that fit perfectly. This design effectively redirects up to 95% of oil vapors to reduce oil mist in the intake tract, helping keep the engine cleaner and performing at its best.
-

Personalization Options: Valve covers feature the SPELAB logo and are available in a variety of colors, letting you customize the look of your engine compartment to match your style.
What product is the best?
1. Material
-
Cast Aluminum: This is a cheaper and common material. It is more durable, dissipates heat well, and is suitable for daily driving or light modifications. However, for extreme performance, cast aluminum is not as strong.
-
Billet Aluminum: Since billet aluminum valve covers are made from a single block of aluminum, they are stronger and more durable than cast aluminum. Valve covers made from billet aluminum can withstand higher pressures and temperatures, making them ideal for high performance or modified vehicles.
-
Carbon Fiber: Carbon fiber valve covers are lightweight and strong, making them ideal for racing or extreme conditions. However, they are expensive and not suitable for daily driving.
2. Manufacturing Processes
-
CNC Machining: This process is used for billet aluminum valve covers and creates a more accurate and durable valve cover CNC machined valve covers are high quality and ideal for those looking for performance and longevity.
-
Casting: Cast aluminum valve covers are typically manufactured using the casting process, which is faster and less expensive. Cast valve covers, while strong, are less precise and may not be as durable as CNC machined valve covers, making them ideal for the average driver.
3. Design
- Heat dissipation: High-quality valve covers often have special heat dissipation features such as cooling fins. This design keeps engine temperatures stable and is useful for drivers who run their engines at high loads for long periods of time.
-
Sealing: Good valve covers focus on sealing to prevent oil leaks. This is especially important for modified or high-performance engines.
-
Custom Looks: Some brands offer color options and logo customization for a personalized touch, like red, silver, black, etc. Billet aluminum covers are particularly easy to customize in terms of appearance.
How to choose the right product
1. Adaptation
- Key Consideration: Make sure the product is compatible with your vehicle’s make, model, and engine specifications.
- Example: If you own a 2018 Dodge Ram with a 6.7L Cummins engine, you’ll need a valve cover that specifically supports that year and engine type, like fit for the SPELAB 2007-2023 6.7L Cummins valve cover.
2. Price
- Key Consideration: Determine your budget and balance it with the quality and features of the product.
- Example: If you're looking for an affordable upgrade, cast aluminum valve covers offer good durability at a lower price. For those seeking higher performance and durability, billet aluminum options are available but generally come at a higher cost.
3. Application Market
- Key Consideration: Choose a product suited to how you plan to use your vehicle—daily driving, off-road, or racing.
- Example: For everyday driving, a standard cast aluminum valve cover will be sufficient. However, for high-performance or off-road use, a billet aluminum cover with CNC machining, like those offered by SPELAB, provides enhanced strength and heat resistance, ideal for demanding conditions.

Excellent quality.
I have a 2017 Ram 2500 2wd and looking to make it last as long as possible. With extra fluid capacity and cooling fins, I felt that this is better than stock. The hardware that came with it looks great and appreciated because I was going to replace the old anyways. Even the gasket is heavy-duty and looks like it's reusable if needed. Not a thin felt like material but a thicker quality rubber. Shipping was like 4 days. I am pleased with my purchase and would highly recommend it.
Highly recommend clean, good quality, fast shipping. 100% haves my business is had my power coated
Everything went in and on very smoothly everything fit and as should only thing I will say is does not come with bolts for up pipe and the gaskets are decent but would upgrade to some mahle gaskets and get a set of ppe up pipe bolts other than that very solid affordable set of parts the coating on the up pipe will burn off due to heat but it does not affect performance of part or affect truck at all definitely recommend if your looking for performance parts while trying to save some money it definitely gave my Lly duramax the tone and power I was looking for!
I received a box with no grid heater delete got a hold of customer service and receive one in three days. Fantastic service.
Install was easy works great at a fraction of the price. Heat element started truck at 8 degrees the other day just like the original grid heater did.
Worth the money and 1/4 of the price 100% recommend them i run the pipe 1 my dad runs there newer style both are worth the money. And just put 1 on my father's in-law truck.
Installed on ford e350 super duty dana 70fit was perfect
Having trouble keeping clap rings on the hose and pipe they keep blowing off when boost pressure coming up.
Perfect fitment and function.
I have a 2005 ram with the 5.7 I had a 2018 challenger with duel coil packs so I got this valve cover to fit and used the mmx adapters and boom! Looks amazing. Only thing is the screws and lock washers are not good...torque specs will break the lock washers and I think one coil thread hole got stripped but other than that I got it too work. Thanks!
Install was easy as long as you take the fuel line off the manifold and reinstall it after bolting down the intake. It also helps having an intake heater since removing the grid heater. No more check engine lights after a cold start. The quality of Spelabs products are great. And the price point is even better.
combined it with the intake horn, new intercooler and pipe kit. added the valve cover. Seems to function well. instructions were adequate- could be better. I assume a few of the complaints on the reviews may have been instruction related. We will see how it compares- ran stock for 230k- will try this now.
Bought this kit as part of a larger overall DCR Pump conversion. Kit came quick, complete and works as advertised.
Very pleased with spelab. My horn is awesome and arrived in great shape. The heating element however I was not so lucky with. It arrived damaged. I reached out to spelabs support and they promptly sent me a new one free of charge. Installing that tonight. 5 stars
