Oh, my bad. I assumed the entire assembly including cover for the OEM unit was steel. Thanks for the info. :happy0180:

The purpose of our cover is to provide increased cooling, through
  • Larger fluid capacity
  • Better heat dissipation
  • Ability to install an auxiliary cooler

I know this is an old thread, but I'm in the market for a cover.

@Mach V Dan, what grade of aluminum is the cover made from?
