Got a load of bits polished up and after hearing about how hard it is to torque the rocker cover up and them leaking if not done write using the cover philips screw head bolts.
are these any good anyone else got them?

you only have to do the rocker screws hand tight.
Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Ebay bolt kits?

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Ebay bolt kits?
what do you mean by "hand tight" you dont want to graunch them or you will strip the head.
you need to give them a nice firm tghten

tempted to buy a set as im working in the engine bay at the moment .
Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Ebay bolt kits?
i got a set a few weeks back when did my rocker cover gasket. they definantly worth it mate. think the only kit you get is available from kelsport who i recommend. you do only need to do them handtight as you can damage the bolt and even crack the rocker cover
Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Ebay bolt kits?

You have a Rev 3 see note further up thread by ancient mariner.
Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Ebay bolt kits?
Please think before posting. I run a Rev2 head. See my photos!
Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Ebay bolt kits?
Why would I think you would put a Rev 2 head on a Rev 3.
Its not obvious in your photos its a Rev 2 head and doesnt say anywhere its is.
You rated them 7 so they couldnt have been that bad.
Nice car.

I did rate them a 7. But then the rocker started to leak. I tried to tighten them down and stripped the thread!
