At this point we decided to add a racy feature to the appearance of the bike by shaving the cam cover plate. First remove the oil line. Unplug the timing plate wire, dismantle the connector and pull it through the plate.

Gene used a Sawzall and a grinder to remove the aluminum underneath the bolt holes.

You will note that there is a series of seemingly endless webbing in this area which is for noise reduction.

Notice that in the lower left hand corner, there is a dowel pin. Gene chose to leave it in place as a wiring guide and carve the cover around it.
