Supplied as a replacement valve cover (right-hand bank) for the GM L87 6.2L EcoTec3 V8 and the closely related Gen V 6.2L applications noted below. This listing covers the component described here only; hardware such as bolts, seals and gaskets is included only where the specification list says so.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFunction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe valve cover closes the top of the cylinder head, holding oil around the valvetrain and sealing the upper engine against oil mist, dust and moisture. On a Gen V V8 the cover also carries the oil filler and breather provisions and sits over the ignition and injection hardware, so a cracked, warped or badly sealed cover commonly shows up as oil seepage down the head, a hot-oil smell after a drive, or an unmetered air leak that disturbs fuel trims.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecifications as documented\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eComponent\u003c\/strong\u003e: Valve cover (right-hand bank)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOEM part number\u003c\/strong\u003e: Not stated in listing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEngine\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6.2L Gen V V8 - L86 \/ L87 named in listing; 5.3L L83 \/ L84 also named\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eModel years\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2014-2024 (supplier stated)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage contents\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 x right-hand valve cover (gasket not confirmed as included)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEngine: 6.2L Gen V V8 - L86 \/ L87 named in listing; 5.3L L83 \/ L84 also named.

The head rail and bolt threads should be clean and dry, the gasket seated without stretching or twisting, and the fasteners run down evenly in sequence to the specified torque. Reusing a hardened gasket, or over-tightening one corner to stop a weep, usually produces a repeat leak.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFitment notice\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCompatibility is stated for the GM L87 6.2L EcoTec3 V8 on the strength of the supplier listing and, where an OEM number is published, a parts-catalogue cross-check. GM built the 6.2L V8 in several forms, and L86, LT1, LT2 and LT4 components are not automatically interchangeable with L87 parts. Before ordering, confirm the engine RPO code and the original part number against the vehicle, and treat this listing as a guide rather than a substitute for that check. Specialist engine repairs should be carried out by a qualified technician.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Global Engine Components","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54770008490302,"sku":"L87-VC-R-1601580570886","price":564.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0948\/1486\/3678\/files\/H49b6cc4ceedb48efb5fca79c8e11a128f.jpg_640x640_58982a94-8af9-4d5b-84e3-0cb04901c1d6.jpg?v=1793097406","url":"https:\/\/asiapartsstore.com\/products\/gm-l87-6-2l-v8-valve-cover-right-bank-gen-v-ecotec3-l86-l87-2014-2024","provider":"Asia Parts Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
