Why would you want clear valve covers? They are the prolly better then the 2 piece covers.
08-27-2008
well, you are able to see your valvetrain, and see proper oiling.
I ordered a set for the truck.... just wish I had soem for the GTP.

that was the purpose of the 2 piece covers, The top seal leaked all the time.
Come to think of it those clears have been around for a long time, I didnt get em because they will never stay clean.

know anybody with a cnc machine and two big chunks of clear plastic?

Seriously I thought about this idea a long time ago. Still far from the first to think about im sure but anyways I thought up of the valve cover idea and also a rearend cover idea. The only problem i came up with is the visability thing and maybe the plastic getting stained.
08-29-2008
Yeah, would be pretty cool if the things stayed clean.

use some PAM, the oil will run right off!!!!!!!! LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
we have injection molders at work.... might have to bring in a set of stock covers for a trial and error session.

the rear cover WILL NOT STAIN, I did get cleargearz for my mino it looked pimp but lacked teh luster of a beefed rear, positrax stopped that, was a good hustle though

you could always do the sand, polish, high temp paint (clear). then you could put logos into them as well. I think that would be the chit if you had a full roller setup, and clean heads.

What about a huge billet of clear plastic and make a clear engine block?
08-30-2008
Haha, yeah I'm sure that would hold up real...... well.

I saw these on the Hot Rod Power Tour. Pretty cool, but keeping them clean would be my concern as well. You could always just not put any oil in it. LOL!
08-31-2008
What about???.....Some kind of oil deflectors that would not hurt the oiling side any but were also not sore to the eyes? idk just brain storming
09-01-2008
I thought brain storming was how unique stuff is made, and then made main stream.

I think they would be cool.
Wondered about the rear diff. covers that were see through I have seen before how they hold up to the oil on them, and if it stains the plastic. IIRC, the rear covers were machined from bullet proof glass.
