Bob,

Very nice and exactly how my motor looks right now. I think the white is sweet and love the job that Locobob and Jeff did. I can't wait to see it completed.

Hey Bob that really looks sweet!:cool:

Seeing your choice in PC'ing makes me think if Grumpy had a vette, it would be a white one. Man I'd love to be a fly on the wall when your's is done and you open the shell at a car show!

:cheers:

Tell me you have a blue Samco intake duct?

Glad to be of service Bob. The white looks great - gonna be a battle to keep clean though. I've found that many paint oriented products can be used to clean and polish powder.

powder coating is easy to be clean, whatever the color is!!

why you think speacial garage using Clear powder coat floor?:o
it is because against rust and easy to be clean .
white isnt my taste , but polished plenum then clear powder coated makes it amazing!

That white engine would look good in a white ZR-1 or any ZR-1 for that matter.=D>

Got the plenum back on today and then discovered that I must have tossed the coolant gaskets out with the packing material:o :o . Damn old age must have crept in.:mrgreen: Now I have to wait until Jeff gets back from Georgia to send me a couple new ones.

Plenum went back pretty easy except that I lost a 1/4" wrench somewhere over the tranny. Those hose connectors sure can be a real PITA but finally got them hooked up.

I did the same thang with my wrench...Find yourself a 1/4 inch driver and cut the plastic handle down to get passed the fuel rail cross over lines.....it works awesome!:cheers:
