It it looks good then do it. Are you going to race the car professionally or compete in an endurance contest?

QUOTE(PanelBilly @ Jul 1 2014, 09:18 PM)  It it looks good then do it. Are you going to race the car professionally or compete in an endurance contest? Not a racer, just a daily driver. Fastest I have had my car in these 1st 5000 miles is 75.... maybe. Not positive, cause the speedo is squirrelly. Painting stuff ended up being one of those, "while your in there" things. makes you take your time during assembly. did not want to scratch the paint. And having a light color on the tins has helped me fined leaks etc... Any thing that would fit in my wife's oven got painted and baked. another shot of the engine on the table...  |
