Someone asked this quite recently, and mike (philpott) provided a link.

I'm sure he will be along shortly to tell you!!

Ha ha, probably, he knows quite a bit. I do try and search on here in case someone has asked but find it hard.
Cheers

these ones ? clicky

They should have "funny shaped" washers like these clicky again

If you speak to the seller he'll do you the right quantity (old Essex V6 has less than the Cologne engine) but tell him you don't want the bolts, they'll be the wrong thread.

Try and find some genuine Ford rocker cover gaskets, they have little spacers set in them to stop them quashing down too much.

How do you do the clicky thing??????confusedLooks like i will have to hide an old 2 washer and bolt at the back where no one can see them. Sneaky!!

Are those plated, they look lovely and shiny.
I was wondering whether it was worth getting mine plated, as they look very dull and grey at the moment.
I am sure it will look good with the red rocker covers.

I got the genuine gaskets, £14 but with the spacers you cant go wrong eh ?
