172/182 Cam/ Rocker Cover

[TheSaint]

Hi team Trophy.

Looking to see if anyone has a 172 / 182 cam rocker cover nestling away somewhere that they are not using and would like to part with. My uncle is in the process on bringing a 172 back back to life and just has discovered why the previous owners mechanic took it apart and didn’t put it back together again.

Thanks in advance.

The cylinder head/cam covers are line bored as an assembly, so the chances of finding a cover that will line up correctly with the cams
is very slim.

A known quantity 172 engine is probably his best bet.
