I powder coated my tubular gt40 intake to match my boss 302 valve covers, thought I would share what do you think?

That is going to be sooooo sexy. Get that on your engine, I really can't wait to see what it looks like. Definitely a new idea, and it matches so well!

Looks great. What did you use to strip it and how did you keep the straight lines free of coating?

I used aircraft stripper like tannerc91gt said, but I didnt have to grind it off, the guy I had powdercoat it taped the fins off for me.
