Machined parts
This may be a case of counting my chickens before they hatch, but I may have a pretty sweet situation brewing.

Some of you may remember this proposal I offered a while back. I was looking to make some parts from aluminum, for example this wire cover, even with personalized engravings:


I had them designed, however it never worked out with the shop, not to mention what they were charging.

At the moment, I design and produce parts where I work. Most of our stuff is outsourced to a local machine shop, but I'm trying to move to an area where we do some of our own stuff.

If I get the opportunity, throw me some ideas of what you guys would want.

The RR/VE version will be a flat plate that sits flush with the engine, the DE will sit up a little higher, but I'll work in a way for it to flow nicely with the VC.

Cost is dependent on who makes the parts. Obviously, if I'm able to get a CNC at my place of work, it'll be much cheaper.

Idk they always have problems and mine in particular has always been terrible. Routing the reg hose to PCV with a valve makes it much more solid and nothing to get stuck and dirty and what not. Only down side is crappy idle at cold start lol.
