the opposite side. I was thinking right off the bat no, because the NPIs' have smaller heads and the PIs' bigger and the valve covers would be diff sizes.

if u want 2 oil fillers, one on either side lollol. you'll be able to do oil changes twice as fast. um if it has the same bolt pattern then it'll work just look retarted.

No you can not use your NPI valve cover on the PI head.
