    GS550 valve cover bolts

    hi,

    I thought the valve cover bolts were all the same length - 2 out of the 16 are a bit longer. Checked the parts fiche and calls out the 2 longer bolts but the schematic doesn't show where

    LMK if you know - TIA.

      The 2 longer bolts go where the 2 dowel pins are in the top of the head that locate the valve cover.
