    Rocker cover screws/bolts

    My old valver engine used to have bolts that held my rocker cover on, yet my new willy engine has torx screws that hold the rocker cover on.

    I don't like these Torx screws as they're a pain to get out, and most of them are getting chewed up now..

    Did Renault use both bolts and torx screws for the rocker covers, or were the bolts on my valver engine something that the previous owner had changed?

    Can i get hold of a set of bolts from Renault, or does anyone on here have some?

    Cheers!

    Sweet,

    Sounds like i need a trip to see Mr Brown seeing as though he's only 15 mins away!

    Cheers for all the offers/advice though, much appreciated!

    Hate the god damn torx screws, worst thing ever made they are!
