cam cover gaskets

[benjamind]

I have just ordered cam cover gaskets from VX do they come in a pack of 2? or do i need to order this item twice.? I hope you understand what i mean by this. Been given a price of £22.61 plus Vat does this seem correct for one or will that be for 2?.
Cheers Ben

That'll be the price for one pack containing 2 gaskets. You need a pack for each side, hence 2 packs. There's a gasket over each camshaft, and 2 camshafts per bank hence 2 gaskets per bank.

It'll all become clear when you remove the covers. Don't forget the black sealant!

I paid around £55 for my Cam Cover Gaskets and "O" rings so I would say too that you only have one side.

Ben,

There will be 4 gaskets - 2 per side. Also there will be 16 O rings = 8 per camcover.

While you're getting some bits in, try and get a couple of tins of carb-cleaner, so we can do a throttle body clean and breather clean.

We may as well do the job properly

See you in Manchester on the 21st

Aye.. the Elite gearbox issue has now been identified, and (temporarily) resolved!

I say temporily, because I need to source an AR35 (stronger) gearbox.. but essentially, we got to the bottom of it!

As said, the cam covers gasket are 2 per pack, so one pack per side... total 2 packs.

The O-rings are supplied in 10-packs, so you will need one full pack plus 6 from another pack... total 16 individual O-rings.
