Title: MK2 to MK3 Rocker Cover
Post by: V8Rumble on 29 October 2013, 19:05

Hi
My son has asked me to ask if MK 3 rocker covers fit the 8v Mk2 GTi engine and if so does he need the cambelt cover to keep the same profile :huh:

They will fit with some minor fettling. You will need to install longer studs in the head along with the revised rubber rocker cover gasket. If you ask for a rocker cover gasket at vw they'll sell you the later gasket with the studs as a kit.

Breather pipe may need some tweeking along with some moving of the isv. You will need the 2.0 8v cambelt cover.
