Looks like I'll just have to chrome it, or powdercoat and use some other blingage. I got this in the mail yesterday. The cover will vent into it with some nice braided lines....

Why dont you take a 1.9 gasket in to a shop and have a flange made...then TIGed to your g60 cover..smooth it all out...machine it flat...and run it.

Maybe too much work..but you would have the only 1.9/g60 valve cover.

That's actually a great idea, but the present cover bolts down through the top of the cover. I have heard that the untapped holes are in the gasket surface to bolt down that way, but I haven't looked at that yet. Be assured, I'll do something nice. :D  :wink:

The gasket surface is the same, I bet you could drill and tap the head to fit the G60 cover on and remove the studs on the cam brackets.

stewardc,
was that you bidding on that white face cluster on E-bay?
I think your valve cover should be made custom by a cnc milling machine and then have it fully polished! I put a G60 fully polished valve cover on my    1.6 TD caddy and it looks real good!
thanks Duane

Yes, I did win the cluster ($20). :D
The 1.9 is certainly a different beast, though I only have about 100 miles on it yet. It is noisier and has slightly more vibration. The torque is unbelieveable. It will pull as hard in 5th as the 1.6 does in 3rd. Keep in mind that the 1.9 is all new and highly modified (though presently only running 8 psi boost) whereas the 1.6 was worn out.
