Oh, nice. If I ship those 3.1 intakes back to you, will you coat them for me?
'98 Volvo V90 - Ford 5.0 swap in progress '96 LR Range Rover 4.6 HSE - suspiciously reliable '92 Volvo 740 Wagon - former parts car, now daily-driver beater '71 Opel Kadett Wagon - 1.9L CIH w/ Weber DGV 32/36, in bits
Nice! That won't chip when working on the engine. You got me there, I have to be extra careful.
But I got you on 2 other things. 1) I removed the tabs and other silly stuff first. and 2) I have a cool Chevrolet logo. Let's see you make the logo with powder coat!! haha
If my paint on the logo ever craps out, I planned to just go all black and not re-do it. In that case it might be worth while to have it powder coated for durability. Same goes for valve covers.
That looks really good. I like that semi-gloss/flat look. Factory looking engine finish if you ask me.

Yeah some applications like the later year W and N bodies can use em where they ran the wires over the front. In the L body not even my old 3100 side hole was used for anything, so off they came!
If I ever need anything to match my current stuff I know who to go to!

How did you get that "crinkle" finish? You did a better job sanding the front stuff flat. I didn't think to use a block and hand sand it smooth. Mine is a bit un-even from the die grinder lol
