i have got hold of a 2006 s2000 engine for my 1999 car and will be installed in the next few days ,

apart fromt the breather outlet whih i can get the hose on are the rocker covers any different?

i would like to use the 2006 one as the paint finish is much better

If the '06 cover was from a DBW S2000 it will not work on a '99.

There are two TDC sensor on the '99 cover, but there is only one on later model DBW cars.

- i have already fitted my stock 99 inlet manifold and ancilleries to the bare engine, other then swapping my rocker cover is there anything else i need to be aware of before fitting it?

could you not just use appropriate sized silicon pipes?

thanks thats the help i needed,
if i put my 99 rocker cover on then the engine will work yes?

i have fitted my 99 inlet manifold and ancileries already.

Apart from the inlet manifold, throttle body, fuel system and cam cover, I don't think there are any other things to change.
