I know engines look good with belts going round....But Cover stops any deebree getting into the belt and making it jump/de-rail... Just my two pence worth...

i have just remembered another little tick put a couple of washers in the oil relief spring and that will give you better oil pressure rather than bying a high presser oil pump
