Well if you have stock cam gears there really nothing to look at lol. I didnt take mine off I cut a rectangle out in the middle so you can see the gears.

to remove it without busting it, remove the pass motormount and it pops off easier.

I think he's more curious about running the car with the cam gears visible; the cover removed

I ran my last two cars without one. Cam gears get rusty fast Smile

Other than that no issues.
