That is too clean to be driven.

**FRENCHBLUE72** · 02-05-2006, 03:47 PM

Looks great are those silver parts powercoated???? I am looking for something to compliment my blue and that silver would contrast with it great..

Tycoon4u · 02-05-2006, 10:32 PM

Most of the silver parts are por 15 then painted with enamal. The headers are por 15 heat paint. More pics from today.

**Yukon Jack** · 02-06-2006, 10:50 AM

Sweet post - you can't beat dropping a motor in without the body in place - that is how I did my 454 - sure made frame modifications easier to do.

CHEVYE · 02-06-2006, 12:37 PM

Lookin good man! Glad to see that front end working out good.

Hopefully you'll be riding by summertime!

**Boog** · 02-06-2006, 01:37 PM

that stuff is great and holds up very good i blasted and painted the headers on my vette last summer have about 3000 miles on them now and they look great. it will burn if you get oil on it. my buddie has it on his 67 chevy II race car been on there 5-6 years and looked great till last summer when it blew some oil out when he hit the juice after checking the oil and forgetting to plug his dipstick tube then it discolered. if kept clean it can,t be beat

**BOSS** · 01-31-2007, 05:38 PM
