I have hit that statement "while I'm in there" so many times you start to believe your never done.
Keep up the great job.

Hi Rick,

Thanks for the reply and there is no clear coat on them at all even on the front side. I just wanted it clean intially but thought to shine it up a little and help keep it clean with the REJEX. I'll do what time permits as getting the beast running is 1st priority. I plan to clean them on the back side at least annually.

Thanks and it is getting exciting now...........

Keith,

Thanks and you're right. What kind of diaper should I be using for the final polishing.

I sent the original pedal mount to Carter to make aluminum ones so maybe you can be his first customer if you need it or once he gets the measurement he could ship it to you if it will take awhile.

Aloha,

Craig

Ebay I have one too. Dynomite (Cliff) hooked me up. Its avialable in both shiney billet and Gun metal. Its sold as a LT-1 screw in style.

Thanks Jeff. Exactly as Darryl stated from the Bay.

Craig, the oil cap is the schizzel! That whole motor is the bomb, man!

Good luck with the re-marriage!

Tom,
Thanks for the comment and I appreciate it. It sure has been blood, sweat and tears. I also tried to find a different emblem to go in the center of the oil cap. It comes with a Mobil 1 thing that is nice, but I will search for something else that size.

Okay, here is it. They are not torqued to specs or polishing not completed, but I had to see how they look on the car even though not a good shot in the garage on stands.






I am very pleased with the look and the finished powder coating work. I can't waiting to get them all mounted and started up so I can see how the Z looks. My IHs, plenum, air horn and TB are on their way scheduled to arrive on Tues so I hope to be running by next weekend.
