It has a blown gasket and a hole as big as my head, starts, idles, runs, drives and stops ! Who would put such cover on this engine ?! Before the guy sold it to me it took me for a ride and its faster on the straight then my other E30... Any inputs ?!

...pizza !

Fix the rust and drive the crap outta it?!

Probably just an expensive valve cover. That valve cover is worth almost as much as what you paid for the car. I assume your other e30 has a full interior? Gutting an e30 can make a big difference in performance. Did you do the head gasket yet? In a fantasy there would be a 24v RD head hiding under that cover, but highly unlikely. You can open up the ECU and see if it's got a chip in it, that makes a huge seat of the pants difference to. What RPM does it hit the rev limiter?

Use our VIN decoder thread to see what it came from the factory with. Either way, for $500 you stole it.
