Product Description
The Cummins 3928404 OEM Valve Cover is the factory-correct top-end cover for the legendary 1989–1998 5.9L 12-Valve Cummins engine. This genuine Cummins valve cover protects the rocker assembly, maintains proper top-end oil control, and ensures a leak-free seal when paired with the correct OEM valve cover gasket. Unlike aftermarket castings or low-quality reproductions, this OEM cover delivers perfect alignment, durability, and vibration resistance across all operating conditions.
