For those of you running adjustible cam gears, or want to add a pretty cool look to the motor. Painted high temp engine enamel primer (or I can paint semi-flat black with matte clear like mine). Looking for $45 obo shipped. Not perfect, but about 4 hours of work and lots of Dremel cut off wheels in this guys, so no low balling. I made one for myself, and did it to my spare to spread the joy. Paypal accepted.

Mine mounted:

One up for sale:

Didnt you complain about the thing flexing and giving improper readings with the CAS? nevermind. CAS FTL. I like my crank sensor and my 6061 T6 CAS cover plate.

Haha. Turned out to not be the problem. Just me being a retard.

And Sean ran one just like this for years with no drama.

That ecu plug killed me sometimes. Just trying to get a socket on it without pinching one of 200,000 wires could be a bit tough, especially if one had been doing some drinking.
