Engine Cover?

Post by Cavey1638 » Sat Mar 25, 2023 2:42 am

I have recently remapped and fitted a new FMIC. I did look at new coil packs and having had a brief exchange with B21 have been looking at Nexsys B58. My only concern is the aesthetics as it looks a bit messy. Are there any covers for the engine which hide the fuel rails?

Thanks,

That answered the Q as I wondered if the cover still fitted which clearly it does. Did not want to get something then have to machine the top cover.

Regards,

I spent a while tidying the harness up so it was already fairly neat..then the stock cover will go on..took the existing plastic rail out that carries the OE wiring and used some cable wrap ..
