USED MINI Valve Cover Bolt

USED MINI Cooper Valve Cover Bolt 11-12-1-487-179. This is a lightly used Valve Cover Bolt that we have striped from a used engine or valve cover. Sold as each and will come with a bolt and grommit. This is used some there can be some surface rust, but will work as it should at a fraction of the cost of a new one. This is a replacement bolt for all Gen 1 MINI Cooper and MINI Cooper S's (R50, R52, R53). This is a special m6 x 1.00 threaded bolt (40mm total length) with special collar that will only allow it to be tightened to a certain depth and has a special sealing ring to keep oil in and air out. The car came with 8; but it really uses 9 if you delete one of the studs. These really only need replacing when they rust and can't get them out when the head rounds out. If your planing on replacing all your bolts, look at just replacing the whole valve cover. These bolts are not cheap and the whole cover is less costly than 12 new bolts and studs.

Note: Torque to 9 ft lbs.
