Nic Posted March 20, 2007 Share Posted March 20, 2007 Is it aluminium or has the plastic cover been vacuum plated? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gamer Posted March 20, 2007 Share Posted March 20, 2007 It is a full aluminium piece Nic, Eric (Cowboy) does not do plastic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DamanC Posted March 20, 2007 Share Posted March 20, 2007 Suprised it hasnt been done sooner tbh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cowboy bebop Posted March 20, 2007 Author Share Posted March 20, 2007 Thanks guys, it's nice to know that the effort is appreciated. Gamer is right, the cover is an aluminum magnesium alloy, and is modeled off of the stock cover, with a few changes. Here's an up close pic of the polished type and of the chromed type. Daniel has the chromed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cowboy bebop Posted March 20, 2007 Author Share Posted March 20, 2007 Here's another pic of Daniels motor in the car with the timig cover pointed out. I think it sets it off. Eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sharpie Posted March 20, 2007 Share Posted March 20, 2007 Has the lower cover been done too ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silvershark44 Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 That engine looks rubbish...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 Oh well thats one more original idea gone, great minds and all that Go for it Col, a little competition never hurt anybody! And with only one person / company in the world making these, competition ain't THAT tough! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cowboy bebop Posted March 21, 2007 Author Share Posted March 21, 2007 I'm not sure what the specs are on the motor, I just know that it's going in VERY well done MKIV. The middle timing cover piece is really beautiful piece, but it's also a real PITA to make . The lower covr isn't done.. yet, but it's on the drawing board. YOu guys like?

cowboy bebop Posted March 21, 2007 Author Share Posted March 21, 2007 Doesnt even look like its in production, Eric is simply letting us know its 'there' Well, there are multiple copies of course; it's a production piece. To produce just one copy would so so expensive, it'd take a madman to commssion it. The gent who commissioned it asked for 25 copies, and I think he has 10 left unspoken for. I just didn't want to post up any information because I didn't want it to seem like a for sale thread. I like showing off our abilities and letting evryone see what sort of work we do here.
