Interesting, what does the timing belt insert do? Kind of like a guard against foreign object damage or something?

[gsi pie]

the belt insert is for show really as im not running a belt cover or backing plate on my engine

hence no lip on rocker to

(give you an idea)

[Cavalier342]

Oh I see.

exellent work pie, are you fitting verniers as well, should look really smart with the crackle paint and the mods, something differant to stand out from the crowd. Ads

[gsi pie]
