I was going to suggest them but you said "2" Surely you need 4.
My other suggestion before you said "2" was core plugs.

I like them

I did actually wonder if whether you had come up with a new weight saving idea or if you were just fishing for ideas.lol

well Paul as you can read i have acctually done every thing that has been suggested years ago ,lol and more besides ,as you can imagine.
i dont really know where to go from here.
basically [christ i hate using that saying] when i'm working on the car i look at things and figure if it can be amade from a lighter material.
but its getting harder all the time ,
hence the vedry small stuff now,
i think its time to get some 6AL4V bar and start on the bolts.
i wish i could get hold of a couple of quality CF rocker boxes.
i also want to make a CF rear firewall , the alloy i am usung is 2mm thick and weighs 6kgs inc the polycarb upper section.booo..

I understand your dilemma Carl, Im in pretty much the same boat, except obviously I dont have the Ti parts. You must realise that 2 nicely painted GREEN steel rocker covers are lighter than cast alloy ones.
Have you tried Ti core plugs? I saved 20g, youd save 40g.
I think you need a Sprint shell.
