freshy fresh valve cover
Yeah, it was nice to finally win after entering 3 years in a row!! But I did make quite a few changes this past year. Let me know how your valve cover works out, Hit me up if you have any questions on what or how I did mine.
Is the paint holding up alright? I was going to paint mine but was wary about painting it with non hi temp paint, the colors I need don't come in hi temp. Any problems with it fading or anything?
That bay is so damn clean I can't even tell if you run the thing

I used a high temp paint as a primer. I used black, and lightly sanded between coats. 2 coats should do. Then your paint, then a high temp clear (I used about 4 or 5 coats).
The Aircraft Remover is taking forever! How long did it take you? Did you take it down to bare metal or did you start sanding?

Looks good so far!! I didn't get it down to the bare metal, just enough to get the surface roughed up. Once that was done I sanded like crazy! I like that you shaved it too, I thought about it, but decided I kind of liked the ridges and lettering.
