Hi All
Does the spark plug cover need to be water tight when re fitting?

Thanks again
The problem is that there is only two screws holding it down one at each end which makes the center part not sit flat, there is a seal around the cover but doesn't seal in the middle.

Mine is the upgrade fitted when rebuilt and has only the two allen screws, it was ok but once the heat gets to it you need that third screw in the center.

Powers Performance newly developed cam cover, no additional oil spray feeds required. Made from specially developed glass filled nylon. The cam cover has excellent acoustic properties due to an internal honeycomb lattice, and has the advantage of being 30% lighter than aluminium. It also incorporates several extra design features, including a spark plug sealing system which prevents the ingress of water, reducing misfires and rough running due to moisture. Each cam cover is bespoke, and painted to customer requirements. The spark plug cover is pure resin sealed carbon fibre, with custom graphics.

I got a feeling they dont sell them anymore
