We haven't made one yet.
With this new concept of an integrated chrome moly cuff we want to make sure it is proven piece. Our biggest thing is making sure we have everything done correctly and make it a true bolt on part. You shouldn't have to mod it to make it work as the piece it is replacing.

Thank you. With all the options out there gear wise, the best decision was to design around the stock cases critical dimensions. We did spend a lot of time to get weight out it and not make it just a big block of aluminum.

No, I'm a different Mexican and on more than one occasion have been asked if Eugene @ Pro Street is my brother. Hahahaha...
In fact this whole project came about because of Javier. He asked Tyler if he could design the case and Tyler brought me into the mix. Tyler could have just as easily have design this himself, but he didn't have the time and I did. So you can thank those two guys for making all this happen.

beautiful work. I wonder if it is possible to make a h series inner casing that could bolt up to a b series outer casing?. this would eliminate the need for an h2b adapter plate and scatter shield.

Re: Ever seen a Billet K Series Bellhousing?
It definitely can be done. As can a d2b and f2k direct bolt on bellhousings. What it comes down to is the amount of time it takes to design and then programing it to be machined. To give you an idea there is way over a 100+ hours in just this case. Not to mention the equipment needed to collect the necessary data. That's a big commitment to make and the biggest reason why you see so few people making housings. As for a scatter shield, those things will be around for a while because the amount of money it takes to get a bellhousing certified by SFI makes it way impossible to justify the cost of getting it done. It sucks because it would dope to ditch those ugly scatter shields.
