Hi, I'm a machinist by trade and I have been working with CNC machines and programming for about 12 years now. If I knew more about engine tech and tuning, then I would be able to machine my own custom parts, but since I'm clueless in that arena, I decided to do something else to spruce up my ride. I took off my spark plug cover and brought it into work and measured it up and layed it out in 2D on a CadCam program (MasterCam). Now, I have a perfect peice of Aluminum that I can use to make a custom cover and I was thinkg about putting some lettering on.. but I'm undecided... Heres what I have so far... I hope you can see it, I had trouble getting to show up well in jpeg format.

I wont be doing this for a couple of weeks becuase tommorow is my last day before 2 weeks vacation, so it will get made when I get back to work towards the end of the month. I can basically do any words on it.. ie. Honda Killer or something, lol
nice, looks good too. i dont know anyone with a machine shop, but if your willing to make and sell, ill help you out with it.
Whoa... you mean to tell me that you have CNC knowledge??? In that case can you cut a new (larger) throttle body... j/k Looks good. Hopefully someone will be able to help you out.
