Well, after reading a classified ad where people with good intentions violated netiquette by talking about the availability of alternative valve covers to swap onto your Miata, I decided I would create a new thread. Feel free to add pics and discussion of non-Miata valve covers used in Miata applications.
US based RJDM enthusiasts will find the following list to be helpful. It is an adaptation of Randy Stocker's list from Solomiata.com. I'll save discussion of the Ford Laser and other similar, badge-engineered FoMoCo/Mazda products not marketed in the US for another day but if you live in Asia, South America, or Africa there may be even more vehicles from which one could possibly scavenge parts.
DOHC B6P: '88-'89 323 GTX, '90-'93 Miata, '91-'94 Mercury Capri, '94-'95 MX-3
DOHC BP: '90-98 Protege, '91-'96 Ford Escort GT/LX-E and Mercury Tracer LTS, '94-'01 Miata, '94-'97 Kia Sephia GS
My understanding is that SOHC valve covers will not work with DOHC heads.
