Is the rocker cover from the 3.6 speed six engine the same as the 4.0? Another item on my winter list! smile

Yes I believe they are. Racing green quote the ones they sell as 'casting for all speed six engines' thus it would cover the 3.6 & 4.0 litre varients.

£250+ for a new cover yikes . I have my old one on flee bay for much less. It was less hassle to buy one ready coated (red) off Jason rather than remove mine and get it done

hey guys
you can do a lot with paint (€ 15)and 2 hours of work
did tuscan and my esprit with it
here's a pic of the enginebay of my former esprit (got one of the tuscan but it's on my other phone wich is in repair)
don't look at the colour because that's a lotus colour (and with gloss finish)
the tuscan is darker without gloss
the foto's were made a few month's after the respray job
if you don't scratch it, it won't come off.
it's allmost ass good as powderblasting (but less expensive)
gr rens

and another one from my non chargecooled esprit
