custom valve covers

what do you guys think? The company i work for has a big job with a deadline in July and this is my 23 day working straight. i am salery so no extra money in my wallet. So i did some internet searching and some programing using ACAD and MasterCAM and fininshe the prototype today. I have some polished valve covers that will be the final product so ignore the non machined clamp area.

i love goverment jobs!!!

What do you guys think.

YES IT IS A PISTON AND ROD IN HIS HAND.
