I love the look...hate the work but all in all I'm glad it turned out the way it did. If I were to do it all over again I would powdercoat anything I could remove with a wrench.
Yeah see a part of me loves the old '90s hotrod look of having EVERYTHING painted...i've been really tempted to paint my whole engine red and just accent it with chrome powdercoated parts.
I also love the look of a black engine with those black Ford Racing valve covers and an intake painted to match. The problem is that EFI engine look horrible painted like that.
These are my buddy's '06 valve covers that he had chrome powdercoated...i'd love to see an EFI intake done in this....and i'm really thinking about doing my carb intake and valve covers to match.
