The covers are machined from solid to resemble a cast Offy component. They have a recessed pocket on the back to accept the stock gasket and utilize the stock rubber grommet/ washers and hardware for fastening.

The Lifter Covers are priced at $185 each
Matching Fuel Pump Block off plates available for $25 each
Combo Set (Lifter cover plus block-off) $200

A machined matching valve cover (1 in taller) is available for $750. (machined from solid)
Since machining a valve cover isn't cost effective, I'm currently working on a pattern to have a valve cover cast.

Shipping cost = West of Mississippi = $5, East of the Mississippi = $10. Send me and email with the ship to address and I'll give you a total with shipping for outside the continental US.

Looks cool.

I was thinking something more like the X patern like the original.

PS: What software do you use? Looks like solid works.
