RTJas posted some pics of his pimp gas caps that are on his new Lavey. Here's Jason's set up. I think it's a DANA part. Well they have one on their web site that looks like it anyway.

Now I like that and wanted something kinda like it but not an exact spash. And that bezel is to large to fit in my space.
I already had the caps so this is what I came up with. I used 6 bolts instead of 12 and made it as small as I could. I got a little fancy with the inside so it wouldn't hold water in it. I also ported the caps because that's the vent for my tanks. They only had one 3/16" hole for a vent. Now it has 12 of them.
These should look pretty pimp when they get polished and anno.

Hey Dave,
Have you ever thought of having a billet poured that would let you plow out an entire hull using your mill? :D
Fantastic work, by the way. :) :) :)

Do you still have the old flip top ones ??? If you do, I would like to buy them. I have a collection of them.

SuperDave, can you explain the "porting" a little more? I see some holes in the bottom of the Cap, but I can't see where they go.
Those ports are the vents for the fuel tank? So you know longer have to run a seperate Vent?
RD Here you go Dave. It did only have on hole. And it has an o ring that covers half of it. O ring not shown for your viewing pleasure. :D

No, they were changed before I got it. But the holes were left behind!
Tom, I would need a tad larger mill to do that. But I'ed like to!
