EJ Taylor 22 Posted October 1, 2013 Has anyone done this before? From what I can see there shouldn't be any problems in putting the mk3 golf aluminium rocker cover on in lue of the Corrados plastic one. But if anyone knows any reason why it doesn't work or can't be done please let me know. All the best. :) Hand job. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
daves16v 1 Posted October 1, 2013 Early VR's had the Ali rocker cover as standard, got one on mine, the change came around 1994 I think. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim Bowen 1 Posted October 1, 2013 I have one engine with the plastic cover and one with the alloy cover. Plastic one. The bolts are held in place on the cover and they just bolt to the head. Alloy one has studs in the head and then nuts on top. Also the gruvenparts alloy fuel hose clamps only fit the alloy cover. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tigerfish 10 Posted October 1, 2013 Also, from what I've heard, the ally cover will make a tappy top end sound noisier, a plastic cover will dampen the noise a little more. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
