Engine cover for S/C engine

This is one of the new MicroImage engine covers modified to fit a supercharged engine. We had to cut the front of the original cover to clear the blower and enlarge the oil cap hole to clear the larger Blitz oil cap.

My brother had the brushed aluminum anodized the same blue color to match my NST pulley set. Next we will etch some logos on the cover. We'll put MicroImage on there if Garm allows and maybe my brother's shop name.

I will be putting rubber moulding along the back edge to stop it from vibrating against the valve cover. Instead of moving the rubber bumpers from the plastic engine cover, we double-stacked some rubber washers underneath the engine cover and then used one more on top underneath the nut.

I'm sure Garm can arrange for that. The setup charge may kill ya though.
