Continuing the migration of all my 951 stuff over to Carpokes, I've posted my intake manifold port covers in the 3D-printing section below. Does anyone really need these? Not really. Are they kind of cool? I think so. :) These print well on just about any cheap home printer. If you don't have access to a printer and really want a set, let me know....

A little easier to do than the aluminum ones I had my friend make.

My plans to make them I put on hold as cost vs demand was not viable.

I love those. If you're going to do something, might as well do it right. :) What was the recessed circular groove for? A sealing o-ring?

Yes it’s a standard size O-ring we chose.
