Early rocker on a au head

Recommended Posts

Hay all  As the title says, I'm just wanting to know if the EA rocker fits on a au head. 

Thanks

 

 

Different rocker ratios mate, they will fit, but your valves won't work too well...or do you mean rocker cover?

Mate it depends on what the EA gasket is like, if it's the same as AU and the bolt holes line up, then the rocker cover should work.

But if your head is like mine on my ED/XG and has a half moon seal front and back, the rocker cover will only fit that type of head.

EA gasket is like ED/XG, it's the big flat wide one.

In EF they went to a skinny gasket and shaped the rocker cover to avoid having to use the half moons - basically cast into the rocker cover if that makes sense

Not all XG have the flat gasket.
Mine has the cast in half moons and skinny gasket set up.
I have a stack of flat rocker cover gaskets here from gasket sets that have the wrong gasket.
Must be early XG have the flat and late model the skinny moulded one.

XG probably changed to the skinny gasket when EF came out at a guess?
