Hey guys, when you take the rocker cover off, does it use a rubber gasket?
I wanna take it off and I want to make sure I don't have to replace anything to put it back on

there are two rubber gaskets.
though make sure you double check the bolts holding the rocker covers are tight as my ones were loose as a goose.

While it's off, give it a nice rub back. It'll love you for it.

You're not a right puppy Nark
Why don't you shed some love on your 1G? I'm sure it could do with a BOV...

I was talking about a recirculating BOV to stop that lovely compressor stall. The lazy bastard already has two sitting there to be put on.

Why does everyone associate a BOV with those noisy ones that a lot of people have?
There are functional points to a BOV, like not having air travelling backwards after colliding with a closed throttle slamming into the turbos and slowing them down. Compressor stall DOES sound cool, but its not good for your babies Damn, I know I wanna make sure my Blitz turbos are safe.
I'm just finishing cleaning up my rocker covers and spraying them with wrinkle paint....damn, it looks awesome
I'll put up some pics after, when I have a digital camera that isn't flat.

RE:- Aluminium welders
The dude that did my i/c and plumbing is soon quiting his day job, and taking fabrication up full time. And if you guys saw the quality of work he does, you will know why. I will gladly recommend him to anyone, he does an absolutely magnificent job!!! He also builds full chassis drag cars ie chromoly tubing and the likes. But his alloy welding is second to none.......Oh, and you also get the job done by the time hea says it will be done!!
Phill
