  • Read the entire thread in 2 days and absolutely love all of it. Not quite sure what I can add, what hasn't already been said:
    but this is by far my favorite read i've seen on here. I too thought at first that it was looking somewhat like a hackjob, but your effort really paid off.
    You work improved immensely and what a final product! You should be proud.
    To add, this was all done in a home garage and on the driveway. Friggin awesome!
    Photo's and video's are great as well.

    good job, keep at it!

    • Really enjoyed the last few responses! Thanks everyone!

      Little content for these photos. When I welded my catch can AN fittings to the cover I was plagued with the casting creating pin holes in the aluminum. I loved the polished cover, but the pin holes would forever annoy me..... so I didn't know what to do. Luckily I have been working occasionally on the set for overhaulin and Mark Oja was taking about a guy who color sanded a whole powder coated car. I figured it would be worth a shot for the cover, it could fill the holes and look decent. I did four base coats and it filled the holes nicely, plus one clear. Additionally, I lightly color sanded it to knock down the big orange peel. Pretty happy with the results.

        • All that beautiful work and then you trust a Fram oil filter? Also I want a bluetooth engine set up, that bay set up is immaculate.
