A&Q about 350Z
Q:
I've seen on ebay a nice shiny polished rocker cover which would replace my tatty flaking one and would be the first step in me tarting up my engine bay. Being a novice, Is this advisable? Do these things experience any wear and tear in their working life? What else do I need to complete the job. Here is what I think I'll need.
New gasket
Torque wrench
swear box.
Anything else or other gotchas?
Cheers,
mark.
A:
I doubt a rocker cover wears out tbh m8.
I would advise you to get a new gasket and a new rubber bung for the breather system that plugs into the rocker cover, this costs about £1.70 from the stealers iirc.
Other than that it should be a doddle, just make sure you don't get a load of dirty into your engine somehow and you'll be fine
