Re: g60 valve cover

["Michael & Kristen Potter" <kmpotter@ix.netcom.com>]

Alex, to awnser your question the G60 VC will bolt on *but* you 
have to fabricate a throttle cable bracket & also a breather tube to 
the airbox.  For the breather tube use the A2 
grommet(#028103500) & the stock A2 plastic hose that comes out 
of it.  then cut your existing breather hose to fit between the A2 
tube & your airbox....wa la !  The trottle cable bracket is just one of 
those frankenstiens by using the bracket from a VC like yours & 
*making* it fit or you can use a A2 16v bracket that hold's the 
throttle cable up by the TB by bolting it to the front of the VC.  If 
you don't already have the cable with the grommet (instead of the 2 
10mm nut's) then you'll have to change it.  

Oh yeah don't forget to change over to the non-shouldered studs & 
rubber VC gasket....since the G60 was it's origination(at least in 
the U.S.)
