Shit, I had to start drinking just to figure it out!!!! 8) :razz:
Lots of pics here so bear with me as I try to explain the first stages ok. This is a 3 piece timing cover that will utilize the use of the Morroso 3 stage dry sump pump and free up the distributor gear from having to drive the oil pump. Pics in 3 hours
Here is the first block to be machined. It is approximately 12"s by 17"s and is 1.25" thick. A spendy piece of aluminum :idea: Chucked a sharpie into the spindle and let the machine draw the outline of the part of the aluminum. Piccasso :?: The inside line the the exact path of a 2 flute 3/4" endmill spinning at 5200rpm and 27 inches per minute.

RE_FIXTURE..If you look closely you will see the oil control grooves for a no leak condition on a soft gasket. This is the finale staging for the profile on the base plate. From here is will get a counterbore in the back and be flipped over for oil pan seal and tapped holes for the two front pan bolts.
