Thread: Pretty, eh?

    Pretty, eh?

    I had some custom 4 bolt mains made for our common blocks... I'd say they turned out amazing. Only two new bolt holes need to be drilled! Besides normal machining such as a line hone and such after new mains are installed nothing else is needed to run these! Pretty slick eh?

    Can you at least get some HW done while on the job?

    Possibly. I would rather do it when a couple of people want some sets.

    Get what it would cost to sell and are these for common or non common blocks(still a newbie, so I dont know if that would matter on the main caps).

    BTW they do look great!

    ? I have no idea what material any other caps anyone has ever made for these is/was used.

    These are from a billet steel, either SAE 1045 or 4140. I don't know which, I will contact them to find out if someone is interested. They are then, obviously, black oxidized.

    The cool thing is that they use entirely pre-existing holes in a common block, except for just two. Only two holes need to be drilled/tapped, the rest is bolt on and machine! Pretty neat I'd say.

    Re: Pretty, eh?

    Soooo, tell me why yours justify spending $75 more.... If you can't, and you already knew FWD's were 75 cheaper, than don't get pissed at me for pointing it out. FWD's are billet, not sure what grade but a reputable vendor like FWD wouldn't rip us off with inferior product. So once again, justify your price or stop the derogatory comments because mine WAS justified.

    Not interested in buying, ANYMORE! But when someone comes back at me with a comment like that I'm going to justify why I said what I said.
