UPDATE--
I just got a good price on the machining, they will be $199 for club members!


Wondering if there is any interest in my newest product.
I am working on some SBC valve covers with a PORCHEV script milled into them.
They start life as billet specialties baffeled, stock height covers with grommets.
They will sell for $325. I could use less expensive valve covers but they are not baffeled. Would this help your decision? You would just need fasteners, breather and PCV.
How does the price sound? If I can selll enough, I could probably get the price to $295

I am trying to find someone less expensive to do the milling. Here in Detroit alot of people are hurting for work but their quotes don't show it.

Nice Idea and I would be interested if lower priced but also I would like to see a two piece cover. Easy access. But, those are SCHWEEETT!!

If I get enough interest, the price would be even lower.

That would be really cool, however, I cant run the short covers on mine with the roller rockers.

Call me ignorant, but what's the 'V' For? Awsome machine work. I would machine them for you if I had started school two years ago.

V8 hybridized 914. . .

POR(SCHE) + CHEV(ROLET) = PORCHEV

How about Porscholet ?

Spacer could be added underneath for roller rockers

I could do tall rockers, do you have to dimple the firewall?
My car is pretty tight.

Yes, you have to dimple the firewall.
