Yeah i would like to see an upclose picture of one. I have an older clutch cover that has a ding in it and was thinking about making one for myself. I haven't decided on what material to use for the window though. Maybe lexan? I have a nice pc of large diameter aluminum that would make a good collar that would fit on the existing cover. I would probably get that welded on and then make an outer ring that was drilled for the bolt circle. The window would fit between these pcs. Must re-figure out some trig!!!

If i make one - it'll need to be slightly deeper than the stock one , to give enough clearance for my lock up clutch

which means i'll be able to ditch the current spacer plate i have fitted - the quality isnt great and theycan be difficult to seal against oil leaks

Thanks lee- That takes a bunch of guesswork out of the project. I also see how they leave a step on the i.d. and weld to that step from the inside of the cover. Any idea on what the clear pc is made out of. Lexan? Thanks again. Randy
