Hi Andy,
I had a look at the photo of your yellow beast engine, it's hard to see exactly the set out of the rocker covers but it looks as if they are basically standard covers with the modified tops, so if I get a set of standard covers machine off the grove pattern from the tops so it is flat then from a template off of yours make the new TVR logo out of mdf and nicki ( car bog) as a pattern maker would do then get a pair cast. The top and bases would both need machining for polishing and fitting and the rest can be painted to your colour of choice.
Would you be able to get a good template or if we can get 1 I'll make the other as above to match it mirror image....
It will be a good challenge.

Hi Andy,
Not being a Scrooge here, but I don't see this as a profit making scheme for the BBWF charities. I am willing to TRY and find at least one rocker cover and send it to Adam so he can see if he can work some magic down in Oz for any wedgers that would like to benefit from this. But I don't think it should be made into a profit making quest from our fellow wedges.

If people would like to make a donation to a charity so be it. But to affix one from the onset is not what this was about.
