Aluminum oil filler neck
 

O.k guys, I know it's been a while but here it is! It was too much of a pain to make an exact copy of the original. I need to get this fitted to make sure it fits properly and does'nt get in the way of anything. After fitment is established, I will get in contact with the person I have been dealing with to see how he wants to set up purchase of this part. Will get back to you guys a.s.a.p. Also, post your interests. Don't remember who and exactly how many of you guys wanted one from the original post.
One more thing, my original cap fits fine but the aluminum one (in the pics) does not screw on all the way. Don't know why but will see whats up.
P.s. It did not come polished and the finish is not smoothe enough to just polish. It will need sanding and this will be too much work for me to do alone so, I will have to retract what I said about polishing these for you guys, sorry.

Looks nice! Hope it clears everything. I'm interested in one.

ya that does look nice do you think it would mount on a fc too?

^^^^Not sure how the one on the FC is set up. I tell you what, if the stock FD one fits on your car, this will fit.

Did you come up with a price ??

I will take one right now. I was on the original thread and am currently putting my engine back together on the mbm project. PM me a price. Good work
tom

sweet i've been looking for one, i need for my exccesive lim, worst case i can just ex tend that one =-) price?


Los

Please pm me a price

Maurice, that looks pretty damn cool my man. I definitely want one, and can come pick it up :)

oh shinyy, could be interested

Interested!!

No price yet. I need to make sure it fits properly. After that is established, I will talk to the machine shop about pricing and availability. Will try to get it fitted today.

wow yea i forgot about this, glad its done :) i'll cross my fingers everything fits well !

Any baffles internally? With those smooth angles, I would be worried about the oil climbing up the neck much easier than the stock neck.

looks good

Mahjik, I'm guessing you commented on your own question in the pm you sent, yes? I don't think this will be a problem.

I'm puzzled as I don't recall sending a PM about anything. Anyhoo, I'd be interested to see someone run one of these on a road course to see if it allows more oil to creep up the neck.

Advantages?

no chance of cracking like plastic? bling-bling i think. looks nice

The filler neck isn't even under pressure; it just sits there.

I know, I was just trying to come up with something :lol:

I want one but with some bling bling if you decide to bling them up.

its not like you can't 'bling' them up yourself...
grab some sandpaper (120, 320, 600, 1200) start with the 120 and work up to the 1200 wet sanding the part. then grab some regular old polish and go to town on it. should be mirror shiney (almost) in about 30 min.
sometimes you can even go right to 320, depending on the depth of scratches.
if you have a buffing wheel, or bench grinder with a buffing pad you can get it done even quicker.
my point is, dont discount something because its not polished when you can do it relatively easy yourself. after the first time you do it, you'll start looking for other things to polish.

How much would you charge to do mine ? ? ?

O.k guys, some bad news. I fitted it today and there's some clearance issues with the throttle body. The lower section needs to be a little longer and the curved part needs less of a curve. Also, the nipples could be a little shorter. Other than that it's fine. I will get in contact with the machine shop and let them know. Will post again when I have another one that fits correct.
Damon B, I did see one advantage over stock. If you run an R1 strut brace, you can get a better grip on the oil cap with this one. Will it be the same when the piping gets extended? We shall see.....
