no no youve missed the point. they are not called rocket covers at all it is either rocker or cam covers. SR20s have rocker covers and rb motors have cam covers. theres realy nothing to it any one can do it.

FFS. I would like to know if you can change them around. will 26 ones fit a 25 head ?

youve had your fun - now someone answer the question

Also 26 ones have a better baffling system so if you can get them for free or cheap it would be worth your while.

in the spirit of moving forward I'm doing us all a favour and editing the thread title like the good spelling nazi I am.

When I read it I thought it may be a question about different types of disruptive pattern camouflage available for covering up your RPGs and anti tank missile launchers.

FTR there are no "rockets" in your engine, and hence no such thing as a rocket cover. There are also no rocker arms in an RB26 as they use bucket and shim valve actuation. other RBs have hydraulic lifters, but still no rocker arms.

      Find out what RPM it was idling at with the IACV unplugged. It's very weird that the rpm didn't change at all, and then it stalled. When it stalls is it nearly like a switch off, like you've turned the engine off? Or is it more stutters and sputters and coughs to death over a few seconds? Or does the RPM just slowly keep going down and down? Have you done a test of trying to start it with the AFM unplugged? Does it still die?     If you Follow Josh's advice on using Nistune to check the voltages (which is a perfect method!) if you see anything out of wack voltage wise, THEN get the multimeter out and read the voltage directly at the sensor. If the two vary, then you're now looking for a wiring issue vs a sensor issue. So be aware, what the ECU sees, may not be what the sensor is actually saying too...

      You very likely need to get it on a dyno and tune it. My assumption is, you've got an RB25DET tune in it, which has a different manifold, different injectors, and different cams as a minimum. What O2 sensor are you running?   When you say it runs extremely rich from idle all the way to redline, is this just free revving it you see that?

      I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.
