Thanks guys! I designed and cut it last summer but not many people have seen it I just thought with all the valve cover stuff going on out there I would throw this out there and if there is enough interest to make more or get some imput on what changes I should make.

That is a big improvement over the plastic one.

I never did care for the plastic valve cover on my truck. When some one comes out with a reasonably priced cover that looks nice I'll buy one. It'll happen one day but as long as they have to be made one at a time it's going to be expensive. AMwise is using a cnc machine to do his. I've seen what a cnc can do and he should be able to keep his cost down. We'll see!

This one is all CNC cut too. My cover starts out as a solid chunk of 6061 weighing about 57# when I get done it weighs about 10 # There is allot of work in it.

I think that is very nice and like the way you went for more coverage. No doubt it would be cost prohibitive to market one like that.

I made this one up for myself in my spare time and yes they are very expensive to make. It makes you understand where these people making the billet parts for the cars and street rods get the price that they do. If you can make 100 of them you can get the price down but just one or two you can't make enough to cover your expenses .
