Default Clear cam cover belts
"CAM BELT COVERS"




Hi All,

Looks like I have found a manufacturer that can make these for us (like they do for evo's and skylines) I looked into it a while back and it was thousands just to get the moulds made. Any way I have found someone abroad that will make me some samples up before I place the bulk order .. just need to get my hands on some standard covers for them to make the moulds from

anyone got any kicking around I can borrow


chris

Now then!!
Having my head gasket looking like its gone, and me planning on a nice colourful Gates timing belt, this could be a nice addition.
I know I usually only buy Orange products from Chris, I think I could well get some of these.
