Been searching through the forum and on the the good ol' 'net and can't seem to find these. I swear they used to exist and have seem then in a photo before, and they looked amazing.

In old posts I found, DC's site and Archer's site were listed as stocking them , but I can't seem to find them there either.

Can anyone shed some light on the topic?

exotic engine can get them they are expensive, don't have baffles or oil fill, they are GTS R molds, used on dry sump engines. The baffles and oil filler cap can be installed. I have them on my car.

Thanks for the info vegas. By any chance do you have photos of them on your car?

I take it the GTS R valve covers fit on the Gen 3s?

The company I work at made the ones for the GTS-R race cars back then, you see some of the stuff in the link below..

I've been meaning to.. but zero time at the moment for anything lately.. yet when I get the time.. probably this winter to make some sets afterhours, surely I can get the ok from work and cut you guys a group deal of some sort. We still have the molds, only mod I'll have to make is an insert in the mold for the filler cap and can add baffles, or without if that's what you'll want. We also did the race dual throttle body intake plenums, lot's of other stuff too.. Cost would be just a bit of labor and material (pre-preg high temp carbon fibre).

If the price is right, I'd love a set.

Once the snow starts falling I really won't mind doing this afterhours, our summers are so short.. if all works out, it would be a good deal. I can also get my hands on tinted pre-preg carbon, blue, red, etc.. it's wild looking stuff. Just need to get approval to do a personal side job for you guys.. otherwise this manufacturing company does not typically sell to the public, mostly dealing with OEMs and race teams. I wish I could get into more details and dealing, but I need to respect our corporate confidentialty rules as usual until I get the ok. Heck they may have a supplier setup for this in the near future which would be ideal, not sure.. I need to get more info before chatting about this too much.. please bear with me..
Cheers,
Mike

Very Nice! I originally wanted to use a pair from EED, but ended up going a different route. Setup looks great!
