The valve cover is done. Only One thing left to paint. And she will be ready to install.

 

Oh snaps looks like farvegnugen. looks good fubar.

 

very nice, what did you use to paint it with? and what did you use to mask off the lettering and stripes?

 

dude that looks nice!!! i like that shade of blue

 

DupliColor 1200 degree engine paint. is what i used. Both blue and white. And i used Green painters tape. and took my time cutting the letter's out. I could not find the exact blue i wanted. so i painted the cover white first. so it will lightin up the blue a lil. came out great.

 

very nice idea, hmmm just not sure with what color to go with on mine.

 

dude... did you paint the head to? it looks wierd sorta.. like.. fake haha

 

yes i did paint head. same white color at the letter's. In fact. same can of paint.

 

haha.. gonna paint the block? and how well does that paint hold up any one know? you think it seals in teh heat any?

 

no. i want to paint the block. But i would pull it to do so. and i only got 1 day to do the head swap. So the block will not get painted.

 

Well At Least The Top Visable Portion Will Be Noticable

 

fub, it looks extremely sharp..way to go dude!

Thats some great work, and I bet it hardly felt like work!

 

not really much work. just time consuming. you have to wait a full day before you can take the tape off, and re tape it. Here's the front chain peek hole cover i just finished.

 

Lookin' good Fubar! Keep it up.



Rod.

 

yeah turning very beautiful and masculine

 

Well. it's on the car. and performing Awsome.

 

nice. haha looks like the valve cover is all thats there, beyond that its liek a black abyss. lol

 

the head performs just Awesome. It's even Really quite. But the pistons are not so great. She runs Strong. Smooth. And has loads of power. But Piston #3 you can move around whit your hand. and there's a thick ring grove(only it kind of pops out. then groves in.) only it's on top of All the cylinders. there all exactly the same.

 

She runs So much Smoother now since i got out there and did some tuning this mornin. Adjusted the TPS. and ran the Vac Advance on the dissy to the intake instead of the charcoal canister. I am gona get my timing rechecked. and do a lil more tuning. For having bad rings. this thing is a Hoss. and won't even flinch to light em up.
