I have a 98 as well and just put on new heads and had to buy new valve covers and the brackets for the coil packs.

Wow, I didn't know the dealerships were that cheap on them either. I almost spent $45 for a set of used ones from a member here a few days ago. Haven't decided yet if I'm going to buy the brackets or just relocate the coilpacks to the cowl area since I need new wires anyways.

Now,the only possible problem I have seen so far on my install is that, I think, its a pcv port on the back of the driver side head and its different. Im not sure though...
