How to take off a valve cover off a b18c1

[lsnonvtec]

^You're joking right??? =) I hope so.... well i also have a question concerning those bolts too... me and my friend were gonna put in new seals for the valve cover but I had to use the bathroom so I told him to remove all those bolts so he did but there was one, the one at the bottom left corner (b18c1), that he turned the wrong way (went clockwise instead of counter) and now its stripped inside the threads... is there anyone here who's ever ran into this situation or know how to get it out?

If you take the valve cover all the way off, you can get the studs out with a 10mm wrench. I just replaced a few on my head. I had a couple of shops give me some quotes and they said any where from $100 to $200 to replace two studs. But it really easy to do. If you look on the diagram posted on #18 and #19 you can kind of see the hex part.

Hey mirrorimg, what bolt size is that you used to cover up the PCV valve at the top mid of the cover?
