Hi Guys,After doing some major engine work with RichW, we discovered that my cam covers built in gaskets are all broken and have bits missing. so, looking for some intact and good condition cam covers with intact gaskets! Anyone have any?  Cheers |

the gaskets were only ever available as part of the cover. Don't ask me why though.RTV sealant is generally regarded as the way to reseal. Do a search for 'cam cover' and there are several threads discussing the best way to do this. ________________________________________ China D Turbo HDi daily chargerBlack Rallye occassional toy |

I've got some cam covers, rear seal was leaking so I changed it for a refurbed set. Bit of a clean up and some RTV and I reckon they'll be alright |
