Improved K Series Oil Rail Ladder (OEM)
Be the first to write a review
The latest improved design Oil Rail / Bottom Ladder for the K Series engine.
Introduced to cope with a higher torque / clamping load on revised bolts and for extra stiffness; this preserves the head gasket in several ways including some improvement in torsional rigidity.
The new design uses a stiffer heat treated alloy and is said to reduce some of the harmonic resonances thought to cause Head Gasket failure.
Land Rover and Rover advise the use of the latest cylinder head stretch bolts and the new multi layer head gasket in combination with this oil ladder.
Genuine part as used on the latest new K Series (N Series) SAIC engine.
This fits the following models:
- S1 K SERIES ELISE
- S2 K SERIES ELISE
- S1 EXIGE & MOTORSPORT
- LOTUS 340R
