Re: VAINCRE PROJECT BLOG
To paint the valve covers, I first polished them. Then sanded between the fins. I then masked off the area outside of the fins, and painted the middle band with a spray gun. After letting the paint set up for about 4 hours, I then took a fine rag soaked in reducer and wiped the paint off of the fins. Finally after a full dry, I polished the fins with a paper towel. Using the reduced to remove the paint gave the edges a "feathered" look and was easier than trying to mask them off.

Why tell I thees all.....i have seen you Exorzist searches the exhaust. There were the years ago here in Germany at Louis. I have a little after this exhaust in the good old Germany searched. and I found a used. I don't know whether the quality is sufficient you. It is also a package into the quite expensive from here to send United States. I had sent the last weeks Randakk something.. the two exhaust systems will cost so 60.-€ and I think porto so 50..-€ I know but still unsure. You are interestet ?
and sorry for my bad english...
