127298, Some powdercoated goodness.
Posted by CODE4, Dec-31-69 06:00 PM
Valve Cover, Thermostat housing are back from powdercoat. Had it powdercoated with a low gloss black. I love the way it looks.
Oil pan had -10 AN bung TIG'ed on.

Nice look. Keeps it close to stock and the contrast between the head and the housing will look great.

Yes, it has a fine texture to it. The shop that I took it to has a nice variety of colors, gloss levels, and coarse/med/fine textures.

I like it too. all the p/c valve covers popping up recently makes me want to try something with my extra cover. red might be nice

Stuff looks great Dave, and the texture is def a change of pace from the all too common gloss look.

Picked up the free Tenzo R upper strut bar and my modified lower water pipe from powdercoat today. Again Coast Powdercoating (http://www.coastpowdercoating.com/) did a bang up job. Total cost for all parts was $65.00.
Applied a small amount of ARP moly lube under all fasteners and threads.

I like the look of the strut bar but when I saw the pic of the battery hold down on the driver side I thought what an eye sore to look at.
