I finally got around to powdercoating some of the parts for my Megasquirt injection conversion. I used a Walmart GE $50 oven and media blasted everything a few weeks ago at my friend's place. Check out the pics. I kind of rushed it, there was some powder left over in the gun from a year ago and I didn't monitor the air compressor pressure close enough. Results are acceptable though (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smile.gif) Took me 3 hours to powder all of this stuff.

I bought the powder and gun from http://www.columbiacoatings.com/ The yellow is super mirrow yellow. I still have to coat the injector brackets, fuel pump bracket, and fuel rails.
