As many of you may or may not know the installation of the gas cap will require some technical know how or I recommend using one of our forum sponsors such as The GT Guys. When Rich and Dennis installed my gas caps at the Maryland event it took them approximately 2 ½ to 3 hours per car and things went flawlessly but after watching the process I would think many forum members would be able to do the install with a little technical assistance from our GT forum pros. The cost of the raw unpainted billet gas cap with standard (FORD GT) engraving will be $450 plus shipping & handling ($25) but there are a couple of hurdles that will go along with the installation that you will need to consider:
1). In order to make sure the stock bottom ring (that you will reuse) will match the new top billet gas cap these two pieces will need to be painted together. (You wouldn’t want to have the bottom ring and the cap a different shade of color from one another)
2).The stock OEM gas cap assembly will need to have the rivets removed and female threads tapped into the ring for the re-installation of the new billet gas cap.
Now as for the installation cost from the GT Guys including painting, tapping of the threads, and a complete professional installation will cost $620
If you want the GT Guys to prepare a cap for you that will include painting, tapping of the threads, the door to ring assembly, and shipping the total cost will be $250 as long as you ship them your cap at the time of order. If you want the cap done before you remove your existing cap there will be an additional core charge of $325 to be sure that the bottom ring on your car gets returned as they will send you a complete gas cap kit.
I will need to start a list of members that want a billet cap so that we can be sure we have a large enough order to make this build worth the process for our machinist. Once the list is confirmed the machining process will begin within 2 to 3 weeks.
Note: We are also offering optional engraving on the flat knob at an additional $100
