Re: Refurbed rocker cover and new seals.
Got round to fitting the refurbed rocker cover today along with new gaskets and seals 


On the doiwnside ive got an intermittent electrical fault - narrowed it down to possible loose connection at the ecu or in the ecu so i might have to fit the spare standard ecu and will probably removed the sppon vtec controller as its not longer needed.
Ive also got a spare main relay and alternator if required. Im hoping it will be an easy fix
Its not a big issue but it does stall out at idle but starts up again no problem.
Next up after that is a new flywheel and clutch - thinking atr clutch exedy/oem and atr flywheel.
