Also found out I need a timing cover bolt set. When I bought the engine it was halfway assembled so im now finding small parts I didnt get with the engine. Probably just order those from modmax as well since I need the oil pan studs.

The 2V and 4V take exactly the same amount of bolts and same size man.

Buying online, you are paying for the "4V" name. I picked up all my studs and hardware at my local shop for about 5 bucks for the timing cover. Minus the bolts for the pullies.

The timing covers only differ by about 3 inches or so at the very top. If you notice the top of your cover only has two bolts on each end, just like the 2V. Same bolts!

Ill send you a pic of the timing covers back to back to show you. The heads should be 9mm instead of 8mm. The windsor PI heads were 8mm.
