the first photo shows the part that will get machined out of the crankcase....i thought ahead here,when the cover bolt pattern was clocked up using the crankcase,we drilled the fixture plate to take the crankcase dowls to locate it,so i can bolt the case back down in exactly the same place and use the NC machine to mirror the rebate hole making a perfect airtight fit....you coculd also hack it with a diegrnder i guess....... also the case  cover height comparo..... fuk all diffrence in height
