No the 2.0 8v one is all in one. Gasket and baffle together so less chance of it leaking which it won't.

So many people have had leaks 'cos they've used standard 2.0 16v gaskets.

When you order it ask for 2.0 8v baffle/gasket in one and they'll know what you mean. You'll need to order the 8v sump bolts too.

Here's the page in my thread of it.

Originally had just the XE one, then bought the baffle plate and bolts but could never be arsed to do it. It was actually the next thing I was going to do but I got rid instead

Have sold the baffle plate but still have the bolts.

Right made some more progress on the xe tonight and its close but we could only work on it for 2 hours as he had to go but we managed to get rear and front mount on, coilover a back on, 2litre brakes on, started wiring and put a few more bits on, manifold on! So what left is to connect manifold to centre pipe, bleed brakes, connect gear linkage and I want to change sump gasket as the sump is cracked and slightly leaking and that's hopefully it! here's some pics

Gearbox spacer and linkage


Shiny new wishbone bolts as mine were rounded and rusty


Heatwrapped mani off redtom so hopefully that doesn't melt the fan!


New coilies and bolts before brakes were done


When we first got all the mounts on and sitting properly now!


Back on all fours now still needs to go back up to fit mani and linkage though but it's been a while




Bay pics




Looks mean no pics of brakes as I forgot but will get some hopefully one more eve next week and Finley will be good to go
