Looking to get the engine tin powdercoated. What is a fair price? Had one estimate, seemed really big to me. I realize this will vary from here to there, but what have others paid for this service?
Anyone have any good references for the mpls/st paul MN area? Dave |

A grey color but silver looks better.
For $200 I took the fan, engine tin, intake manifold and plenum, exhaust tin everything and had it blasted and powder coated in 1998. It's still looking really nice with 20,000 miles on it. On my Westy I had the fan housing done in silver and it looks better than satin black. That engine has 40,000 miles on it and look brand new.( 7 years later) |
