That shouldn't be too hard, and would definitely be slick!
Just need to run bars down the middle of it that bolt to where the cam caps are

Well, there's already that tool, euro export or whoever it is that makes it, so not sure how you could work off of that, but it is pretty annoying to use.

Just need to run bars down the middle of it that bolt to where the cam caps are FYI I made one up quickly that did that. you will need longer cam cap bolts. I think it was just a little thicker than 1/8 plate, and I ended up pulling some thread out of the head trying to mount it, and when trying to compress the spring.

Works but too slow for my attention span or rather "ain't nobody got time fo dat" My mind is already rolling on this, not that I need it but more of an excuse to make things with the tig.

Realistically I just don't have time to do any sort of production of these. Between a 40+ hour a week job, owning a home, powder coating, working on the heap and doing my custom spark plug covers, time is very limited.
I might make another one or two, improving on a couple little details I discovered on this one(nothing that affects the way it works but to simplify construction).
