Irmscher CIH Rocker Cover


Recommended Posts

Last one I saw went for between  £500-600:o but that was fully finished and ready to fit,this one is not.

In the forth pic there is a suspect mark in the casting on the side:unsure:is this one of the copies that were made,have a look at the pics and see what you think.

May interest other members as well although not to sure on that one,some may prefer the bog standard featureless piece of tin.:lol:

I currently have a Opel GT cover which is the next best thing to the irmy one,well I think so anyway.:blink:

That is way expensive. I prefer the Opel GT one, had mine powder coated by a wheel company, came out nice. I have a 2.4 ally cover if anyone wants it? Just pay the postage and a couple of quid to the Opel Project and it's yours. Moving house soon and any stuff i can't get rid of is going down the tip, seems a waste if someone can use it. (see pic at bottom) Just PM me if interested.  Andy

I wou,d be interested to hear how you get on with the 2.4 lump. If it's from a frontera, I know that they suffer from the cylinder bores wearing quite badly on higher mileage motors. The diesel crank is a better alternative I understand so be interested other which way you go. 

As for the Irmscher rocker cover, they are seriously rare now. The don't come up for sale that often and you don't  see that many fitted on cars either. They were expensive back in the 80's so I would expect this one to sell for that money. They do make a difference if you have solid lifters, as they keep the noise down a bit!

Looks like a genuine one aswell,as I tend to think that mantamike is right about the one I posted its a copy and of very poor quality.

Your irmy cover dwarves the GT one when there side by side,i have to say you did really well to bag that cover for £300 mate.

Cheers for posting:thumbup
