1990 ZR1 Manifold Signature

[Bruce Geveden]

My manifold was signed by Dave McLellan. Does anyone know how to preserve this?

clear coat?

clear coat?

Only way other than removing from car and hanging it on the wall

[Bruce Geveden]

I was thinking of clear coating it but was uncertain if that is the best way. I was hoping someone would know the very best way aside from removing it. Thank you all for your comments.

If I come to the May get to gather at NCM, what is the chance of getting a signature like that. Would be willing to pay $$$.

I have found out that rustolium clear, the type where the label states it dries in 24 hrs, works great with little to no prep required, although it will leave a glossy finish. It also works great on powdercoated parts like the master cylinder and plastic parts like the power steering reservoir and air intake tube and air filter housing. Also did my cam covers because I did not want to remove them for painting and it seems to hold up to the heat and dirt just fine.

If it was done in magic marker,clear coat will blur it.

You can hang it on the wall with my two Cam Covers!!!

I've used a matte finish top coat spray paint (http://www.rustoleum.com/product-catalog/consumer-brands/american-accents/clear-coat-spray/) with good results. However none of the parts will likely have the heat that the LT5 plenum will have.

back in 1990 and 1991 I had about 8 put their names on it and it was done with black marker. it has nothing over it, looks the same as the day they did it. Car has 31,000 miles.

I only use a damp rag with water to clean the top of motor when it needs it.

I would just leave it as is and it will be fine.
