sorry i that i took so long to reply but it takes a long time to draft everything up
this is what i have so far
not painted raw material unwelded but this will give you an idea of what it will look like
i will also put a plug in
this plug is at the same level as the stock one so you will still be able to put the same oil level without any problem
the main plate is cut out of 1/2 steel, it may seem a little light but i am using the formed cover as bracing to keep things from flexing
i will check about making them heavier
what size bolts are people using to put extra pressure on the bearing caps??
I am open to suggestions
