Thanks for all of the compliments. With the totally red engine, it should stand out nicely.
Dan, in answer to your question, to do these two pieces was $280.00. It's expensive up here, but in fairness to the plater, that timing cover looked like crap when I dropped it off and it's actually plated on the inside. Not as well as the top, but spotless, nonetheless.
That's the last invoice that I'm going to look at involving this project.
