Engine cover

[Rogue]

Is there only one engine cover that will fit the 250 engine? Will it needed to be modded slightly to accommodate the 3" pipework?

I can check if a 197/200 one will tomorrow if you like?

 

[Rogue]

I have a 250 engine...I was more wondering if one from a 225 will fit or a generic DCi etc

 

[litchy]

Only one engine cover, if your pipework is the same as Mikes, dont think it will fit.....

 

[Rogue]

Any reason why it couldn't be modified to fit?

Dont think so if its the same as Mikes but SteC would know better.

I need to look at one really. Pop down to Ste's Friday morning will ya please

 

[Mentalpen]

looking at it only a cover off a 250/65 will fit, perhaps get one from ren wolves

I can imagine you'd only need to space the 4 mounting points upwards to clear the bigger pipes, easily done. Providing there's room to clear the bonnet..

I wouldn't run a cover its only going to hold more heat in and you want it as cool as possible in there mine is like a oven on flat out under the bonnet my fan cuts in at just under half way in traffic as its so hot under the bonnet

That's why they came out the factory with them on... to over heat?

I know cause SteC did his too. Its routed in a different way, and thats why I asked if Pete's was the same pipework as Mikes.....

 

[Rogue]

I have no idea whether its the same as Mikes or Neils.

Just finishes it off nice.

Agree. Love mine cause it gives a OEM look, and the engine looks naked without it.....

[Rogue]
