My Zinc Plated Engine Parts

It looks like no one ever did this before on here, I never thought of it either until I met this guy that owns this plating company, I like my engine clean as in sparkle, always hated those oxidized and rusted pieces.

the stages were
1. strip the finish off
2. zinc plating couple hours
3. coated them with efferent (i think thats how you spell it) its a yellow coating that also helps stop corrosion

now no more rust and oxidized parts :P



Tell me what you think

It was very confusing to install at first trying to guess what goes where

at the end they all easily just fell in place.
