I found the old coil packed up in a box of parts with the original clamp still on it. I have a new coil, but that clamp just isn't cleaning up nice enough to put on my engine.
Now, I'm not going to paint it, so don't tell me that's an option! I don't have enough parts to have this replated, but I'm not finding new ones on the bird site (GRP jump in here if you can help). Anybody getting ready to plate some parts?  I could have it powder coated in the gun metal color of the fan too  |

If you re-plate, you should get a new sticker too.
Truthfully, I like the way it looks. Maybe you buy a new one and sell that one to someone that wants a little patina. I have a -4 so mine has a special clamp for the fan housing or I would be the 1st to make an offer. Engine looks awesome, BTW> |
