Thumbs up Ap1 Valve Cover Question?

Well I just learned how to polish and did pretty good. So know I started thinking to myself of doing my valve cover and turbo. I have a Ap2 I was going to put a Ap1 valve cover on it bc thats all people have right now ha but Im not sure if it will fit I searched and searched and finally gave up
So my question is will a Ap1 valve cover work with the F22???

Thanks
Rob!!!!

Not that is applies to you, but the '06+ valve covers are different than previous years.

Would the valve cover change the compression from the F20C to the F22C. Or is the bore and stroke changed? what is the compression on an AP2?

Valve cover has nothing to do with the compression. Compression is all in the combustion chamber. I'm pretty sure the compression in an AP2 is the same as an AP1, something like 11.1:1 in the US, and something like 11.7:1 in Japan.
