Carbon Fiber Valve Cover
Carbon Fiber Valve Cover
(OP)
Just a simple question, what resin would be suitable for use in a carbon fiber valve cover? Could epoxy be used or dose the exposure to the engine oil require the use of a vinyl ester. And if epoxy can be used which are suitable for the task.
Thanks to all.

and look into the operating conditions for the component. Specifically you need to ensure that the transiton point of the composite is not exceeded. The transition point is the point at which the resinsoftens and the component becomes weak.
