My dad works with cnc and machining materials at work and has offered to make me a billet alumminum valve cover. i can get basically any design i want for it.. i am thinking of getting letters/ numbers etched in. like 16V turbo, or something like that.. would anyone be interested in making cool designs or ideas to change certain curves, lines text, etc.. he might be able to make more after i get one done... also if anyone has extra cover sitting around, i want it so i have an extra for him to take a look at and be able to design something off of it.. thanx..

Would he be willing to make some extras? I want an aluminum version of the normal one so I can get it powder coated to match my airram. smile.gif

yah depending on what the first one comes out like, ill be able to have him make seconds, prob not mass produce em tho... i gotta get a valve cover, to make sure that he will be able to machine it, i dont know how the underside of it looks like, or has to be for certain things to work, etc. so ill try and find out stuff, and then come up with some lil different designs.. just small changes, might make it like the beta 2 but a lil fancier.. i duno yet..

Do you want a beta 1 or 2 cover?
If I could get some paint I can send you my beta 1. but if you want a beta 2 then Ill send you this one (as long as I get it back!) fing02.gif

i think id rather make a copy of a beta 2 cover, nicer lines and stuff. either one in alluminum will look badass. like i said tho, he can probably do this, i just dont know what the underside looks like, as far as channels, ports and certain clearences go.
