I got a new billet part made today at work...love shiny stuff.

 

looks cool

id buy one if there was a bowtie instead of SS and just the bowtie was red and everything else was polished

 

that looks pretty bad ass...

 

i want one

 

Neat.

 

that sweet id buy one.

 

I cant get my god damn oil cap riser off. I'd buy one if you help me get it off....

 

its a pain in the assssssss dude
i couldn't get mine off at first but u gotta just pull realllly hard wiggle it around too. it will eventually come out
when i was installing my friends intake his was still on and i wanted to get it off because i told him it looks stupid as hell and i couldn't even get it off but i wasn't trying as hard

major pita

 

I've let a member on here take mine off because I forgot about it and he got it off in about 3 seconds.

 

tulsa. your goofy ass better be there!

p.s. shoot me a pm

 

This is not a cap...its a full billet replacement.

 

Replacement for the oil CAP, right?

Did you run this off a cnc or is it a one off hand worked piece? No problems with sealing?

If you did do it off a cnc, I can see a pretty good market for this - make enough in one run and you could keep the cost down. Few little tweaks in the programming and you could put whatever logo / lettering you want on the top, charge a little more for a custom job

Looks sweet either way, nice job

 

We made it on the CNC's here at the shop....we originally made them for the newer saabs...they just happened to be they same as most of the new GM caps

 

did you put a rubber gasket on it?

 

Hmm, would look very nice with a GT logo on it.

 

I want one!

 

Yep, that would work since Saab is using the ecotec as well

So, since you are set up on the cnc you should be able to crank them out relatively cheap. I know that aluminum is crazy expensive right now (I work in aviation and source it for our machine shop) - how much do you figure you would need to clear a bit of profit on these?

Hope the mods don't mind us exploring the potential here, I know they would want you to get vendor status (don't forget the cost of that in your calculations) to actually sell them on here but if the price is reasonable I would be interested Looking for a little dress up under the hood at some point, this looks like a good start or maybe the finishing touch

 

what front did you use?

 

That's hot.

 

Very nice!
