Hmmmm. It doesn't appear to have a cam button boss.

I wonder what problem they are trying to solve? FWIW, I would only be interested if you could remove a front piece to change cam timing easily w/o breaking the oilpan seal, or maybe even w/o pulling the damper...

Agreed, That is the biggest problem. Changing cam timing and not having a oil leak after.

Contact them and tell them what you need.
Or they will build what they want.

Or someone here with the skills builds what we need!

Didn't CNC Dude build a "prototype" aluminum cover?

I believe Mark and Team Green made what they needed, as needed to their specs.

I would agree with others.

Get a Cam button and make it so that the cam can be re timed without pulling the cover off.

I spoke to them via FB and asked for the 2 piece cover.
They indicated that could be done since there is nothing finished for the slant yet.

That would get me to buy 1-2. One piece - why bother.

I agree. No real need for a one piece. Depending on price, I might be interested in one, two piece unit.

Good question, CNC Dude??

Life just got in the way. I got to the point of being able to get some samples cast and had some health issues creep up and just put that stuff aside. I am at a point now where I could dust that and other projects off and move forward again with them.
