I have a G-60 valve cover (powdercoated) on my 1.6TD, so with the switch to an AAZ, I thought of changing the cover to the new engine......NOT !
Does anyone make a nice cast valve cover that will fit this engine? I need extra bling for the car show circuit. :oops:

I bet sending it out and getting it chromed wouldnt be that expensive and i am really sure they dont make a cast valve cover for the AAZ.

I'll def do a powdercoat (possibly chrome) but I sure wish my G60 cover would fit. :cry:

You might be able to drill and tap the 1.9 head to accept stud for the G60 valve cover.

the 1.9 head is wavy so I don't think so, unless my memory went nuts on me again :lol:

I had heard that somewhere before, but no confirmation on this.

try something new, and have a new cover vacuum-formed out of clear plastic. Then you can cringe while counting how many minutes it takes the oil to properly lubricate the cam lobes after a cold start. :lol:

You could always have a machine shop custom mill one if you want it bad enough. I'd look for the Al at a scrap place though as the new is very pricy.

Yes I do, once I pull the 1.6. I'll post it on here when the time comes.

I thought I saw one in one of Dave's posts(g60). One of his his nice pictures of goodies. Could be wrong though.
