    swapping valve covers...



    I just powder coated the 325i valve cover I have with intentions of putting it on my 2.7 eta. But when I went to put it on I realized that I had forgotten about the brackets for the cold start valve and idle control module. SO I'm curious? How critical are those two brackets? Can I just swap valve covers and NOT remount them? Any info would be great!

    TIA!

    Those brackets are important.

        Get a 885 head to swap on to your 2.7 block :)
