Frequently asked questions

What is the 3/8 UNC rocker shaft baffle plate bolt used for?
This 3/8in UNC x 2-3/4in bolt secures the rocker shaft and its oil baffle plate to the cylinder head on the Rover V8 engine. It clamps the rocker shaft pedestals and baffle plate down onto the head, holding the valvetrain assembly in place. Fitted to Defender, Discovery 1 and 2, Range Rover Classic and P38 V8 petrol engines.
How many of these bolts are needed for a V8 engine?
Eight of these bolts are needed per V8 engine, four per cylinder head, so order the full set if you're refitting both rocker shafts. Matching the correct 3/8in UNC x 2-3/4in size matters, as the Rover V8 uses this specific rocker shaft baffle plate bolt.
Where does the rocker shaft baffle plate bolt fit on the engine?
The rocker shaft baffle plate bolt fits at the top of the Rover V8 cylinder head, clamping the rocker shaft pedestals and the oil baffle plate to the head. The baffle plate helps control oil around the valvetrain. Four bolts hold each rocker shaft assembly on the 3.5L and 4.0L V8.
