PRODUCT DETAILS
Honda S2000 Valve Cover 12310-PCX-020 - OEM Genuine Honda
Give your F-series engine the factory-fresh look it deserves with the genuine Honda S2000 valve cover, part number 12310-PCX-020. This OEM Honda part fits directly onto your AP1 or AP2's F20C or F22C engine with perfect alignment to the OE dowels, coil-pack wells, and spark-plug tube seals - no trimming, no adapting, no surprises. The iconic wrinkle-red powder coat isn't just for show: it resists heat soak, oil staining, and chipping far better than aftermarket imitations, and it matches the championship pedigree of Type R and S2000 heritage builds correctly.
Inside, precisely machined baffles maintain proper crankcase ventilation during high-rpm cornering, helping your F20C or F22C keep oil where it belongs and reducing the chance of blow-by at the track or on a canyon run. Cast-in Honda part numbers and the correct "DOHC VTEC" script make this cover 100% concours-correct for restorations, track builds, and street S2000s alike. Swap it on after a fresh gasket, torque to spec, and you have a clean engine bay that turns heads every time you pop the hood.
