Well, I had a few issues with the motor and I'm waiting on a part. But in the mean time I got a little crazy and built a powder coating oven. Then most of the military hobby shops around the island had their sand blasters break, I ordered one and now I've been the the garage for the last few days non stop.
I coated the valve covers, tc cover, whipple water neck, and the whipple aluminum intake.
I also ordered Cerakote Chromex and just ceramic coated the headers. It is supposed to be good up to 1200 degrees. It sprays on green and dries whtie, then you have to scuff it up with steel wool to get the shine after you bake it for 1 hr at 600 degrees.

Today I am going to work on polishing them up. I tried a 10" buffing wheel with metal polish and it worked great on a small spot, now I just have to spend a few hours trying to get to the spots the wheel can't.
