Hi Everyone . This has been done before, and a few people expressed interest. The thing is, I made a new friend who has a small foundry casting al, iron and bronze , and he invited me to do a small casting project for educational purposes... So after scratching my head for a little I thought I could cast some finned covers to replace the plain ones with the efi logo. Is anyone interested in one ? I already have a machined one from a former member, but I think this would be a good little project if folk are up for it . Please advise . Please advise . Best regards all . Dave .

Oooh, a cast aluminum finned tappet cover!  Hard to polish...

Even though I've got one of the machined ones, too, I'll ask: what'll it cost? 

[AussieDave]

I have no idea ! He's not gonna charge me for the foundry use I don't think ... So not much I reckon .

My interest is peaked for sure.  Those machined ones looked cool and I suspect a cast one if it was polished would look equally as cool.

I'd be interested in one. 

Thanks for asking

Hi

Would they fit the Cast Iron engine ? would definitely be interested, however live in the sunny UK, so postage might be an issue

[ToesNose]

If they turn out with a nice fit and finish I'd be game

Hi,  These finned covers are already available for the PRE - UNIT Enfields, & may be found very reasonably on Ebay. I believe HICTHCOCK offers them as well. Good luck.

I have one of the small run of finned covers made by a former members dad. It is very nice, SEE PHOTOS. If the fellow who is contemplating having some CAST will Please PM me, I have some usefull info on the design, I believe I started the subject rolling by enquiring about them originally. I was originally trying to find a cast one like the EDDIE DOW plate on the 1958 BSA Goldstar I used to own. Including a picture so CAST & MILLED can be compared.
