its hanging around 20f, I can live with that. Its the impending -45f thats got me worried  :roll:


I'm not happy with the fit of just jamming this in, I'm going to make a proper little housing for it.

without gaskets on the case or the cover I have .380" clearance from the bolt head (.100" wider than engauged pressure plate) on the stock 450 cover and .450" with the billet cover.
I measured the billet cover to be .080" wider than a stock case when installed on the 3/16" adapter, again without gaskets. The 450 cover sits -.040" narrower than stock

I can mill the back side of the billet cover down .100" without an issue i'm sure.

Do you anodize or have someone out there who does it?  Can you machine a word on them? Like kawasaki, ect. ...

I have a guy who does laser engraving for us, not sure what would be involved in making it have dimension and not just an etch like he normally does. I haven't worked with anyone to anodize parts but a friend in edmonton has had success with guys out there who can even hard anodize.

Laser engraving would be cool. Probally easier too

I checked in with my laser guy, he cant engrave the cover but can logo them with a laser impregnated film method of some kind. Not certain how that'd stand up to a boot scuff but at least its not going to make the covers any thinner. It can be done to anything except magnesium, meaning cast or billet aluminum in this case.
