Throttle body cover plates, special engraving?
Anyplace offer L98 throttle body cover plates engraved to your specifications?
Or does anyone sell blank cover plates, that I can get engraved locally?
By the way, anyplace to buy the gasket by itself? Gm wants to sell a gasket kit.
Do you need a gasket if you do the thottle body bypass?

When I bought my TB cover from ZIP, it was just a 1/16" - 1/8" thick plate with 6 holes drilled on the mounting bolt locations and L-98 250HP engraved into it. The gasket was just a sheet or rubber with the same 6 holes drilled through it. You can prob have a local matel shop custom made you one for not a whole lot of $$$.

Something like this maybe? :skep:
I'm sure it would be simple to make your own and have it engraved as above.
G.M. canada wanted $23 for TB gasket set and it didn't include the TB to plenum gasket. Needless to say I cut my own for about 50 cents :D
:cheers:

Yes there is. http://www.polishinginc.com
Ask for Michael. He can engrave anything you want and polish it up. His TB plates have 4 screw holes instead of 6. He charges $50 a peice.

I got mine from these guys on ebay. I think it was $28 + 15 for the engraving. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...category=33553
