    I want the cut for the cam gears CNC'd. Debating on two circles or the full cut like mine now...if i do the halfmoons then i'll need another timing belt cover to cut to match :-) Also due for a really good engine bay cleaning and don't want it on there until then....plus i want the carbing white [steel] 3 point strutbar but will settle for the JDM password bronze colored one if i have to.

    If I were you when I made up my mind I would check this guy out, he does good work and can do any color you want plus its cheaper than buying a new valve and you get the same results. His name is steve he takes core charges too.
