3rz Valve Cover

While putting everything back together from my head gasket replacement I was tightening the bolts on the valve cover and it cracked. Does anyone know where I can get one? Thanks!

 

OMG, how did you manage to do that? The torque on these bolts are like 53 in.·lbf.

 

Honestly I dont know. I thought I was doing everything right...

 

Time to start scouting the local pick n pulls. 4Runners had 3RZ's too.

 

While I can't help you with answering your question one more bit of advise: before tightening valve cover bolts replace all washers (metal/rubber combination) with new one. They are responsible for keeping valve cover sealed when bolts are torqued that light (52 in-lb is almost like a hand tight ). Rubber in old washers is getting hard and very easy to overtight these bolts.
