I'm sorry, we'll check with you before posting stuff from yahoo auctions up in case you've already seen it before.

Yes people in japan do stuff like this all the time (tartan-pattern cam/rocker covers spring to mind) but it's just the culture Honestly with the kind of crazy **** that they do over there, the vast majority seems to be way more.. original I guess you could say, than what people do here which often seems to be regurgitating everything done overseas.

Where's my rant thread...

Y'know I reckon if you went beyond just the wood grain rocker cover and did as much stuff as possible to look like it is made from timber it could be a winner.

Okay, maybe not

no need to get your tits in a twist.. turbo's reply pretty much sums up everything.

 

[CMF_xsoarerx]

its cool... if that was in Oz. and could get it for less than $50 i'd consider...

officer "any modfications to your engine?"
me "yeah i jsut wittled a rocker cover out of wood"

 

[CMF_deNs]

Something I'd love to see as i'm sure someone's done it before - clear cam covers. I've seen clear cam gear covers, they're nothing new. But to actually see the cams go round and round would be pretty cool, but might look pretty **** as it'd get squirted with oil almost instantly plus there'd be all the crank ventilation stuff underneath the top.. Hmm maybe it's not the best idea ever.
