Nice try! A for effort! But meh..


I like the stock one better. Maybe you can put a few mug sized holes in it and make it a tea brewer?

So I did a little cutting and drilling on the cover today, and I made a new template. I will be adding on a little bit to it, but this is the basic design.
This is the start to the recessed bolt holes, this will make it to where you wont see them when you look straight on at the motor.



I cut the rear sections off



Made the flaps near the throttle bodies to have the illusion that its an entirely new plenum.



Here is the last picture for now, I will be out of town this weekend so I will have to wait til monday to finish the mold.
