Rocker cover bolt arrangement

<< < (2/2)

daz-j:
Thanks for the replies and advice, its probably just me but I was hoping there was a clearer diagram of the bolt positions, so I might make one and post it back here.  We use heli-coils quite regularly at work; I must admit I've never heard of Time-Sert's before but from a quick search they come highly recommended - will need to sus out if there's enough material in the casting around the holes.  Thanks again, Darren.

Nurse Julie:
That sounds like an excellent idea. I bought a Yamiya engine case bolt kit when rebuilding my 400/4 engine, as I had a bit of a mish mash of bolt fitted by previous owners. I had to measure the depth of every hole and draw a map of which bolt fitted where, it was a bloody nightmare but got there in the end.

Bryanj:
Outside tap for a 6mm timesert is 10mm so you need a lot of metal.

daz-j:
Diagram attached, pretty sure it's correct but would appreciate if someone would verify it please.  Presuming it's right I'm only 6 bolts short!
