Hi Mike , yes i saw those but i had to wonder about reusing the old gaskets , i always like to change gaskets every time. I already have the rocker covers but am wondering whether to just make some gaskets up , its not really hard i suppose ,it would be nice to have some pre made ones .
Cheers for the reply

Hi Stu , thanks for providing the link , your engine looks lovely in those pics , ps , what are the hoses for the AFMs to plenum from ? [They look like henry hoover hoses !!!]
cheers/regards Paul.
Hi Paul, the hoses where on the car when I bought it. I'm pretty sure they are genuine Ford items (thought they were standard TVR fit for the 2.9 S but when is anything 'standard' on a TVR!) and are much more substantial than they appear, being quite stiff rather than flexible.cheers/regards Paul.
What have you got on yours?
Oh! Mine is an S3c so it's plenum to air filter (no AFM's) but not sure why that would make any difference.
Cheers, Stu
Hi Tom, the car is at a location away from my home so I can't measure them until tomorrow but for your information I got them from Chris 'Barkychoc'.
If you drop him a PM he may let you know his original supplier.
They have been on the car for a couple of years and I can confirm they are still like new.

Anybody looking for alloy covers? If you do buy, then take account of the advice re alternator clearance BUT it is possible, even on a 2.9 to modify the alternator bracket to get the clearance (see thread http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&a...
