Brand new the casting would look almost bright aluminum silver, but within weeks it would be a magnesium light gray and as it got older it would get a darker gray.
Also the runners are a primer gray but in PC I think I can only get this in gloss. Would flat or semi gloss rattle can stick to the PC? This is one engine I've done in bright silver. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads/post-26-1619980755_thumb.jpg) |

Mark, no answer to your question but over on the 911s registry guys are using Cerakote on a lot of 911 mag. As usual there is a big thread about it. The resident guru mixes his own brew of two different Cerakote colors I think.
Sounds like about 3 hours of internet snooping if you are interested. |

I've looked into to it a bit, interesting but my PC guy is 15 minutes away, very high quality, I don't even have to degrease the parts, one week turn around and I haven't found anyone that beats his price. |
