    I also like KBS, I recently used some of the white diamond finish top coat. Looked great.

    I know you love it haha, hadn't seen anyone else applying it though. Thanks for the second opinion Dave. I'll have to order some early when the time comes.

          Got the trans removed, engine on the stand and the head removed. Ready to take it in to get cleaned and surfaced.

            Starting sand blasting and powder coating parts with my setup. This color is called blasted aluminum that has a slight texture to it.

              Check out Praxair for dry ice.  They seem to have locations all over the place.

                    Seeing these old parts of mine feels like seeing an old friend.

                    Well, more like bits and pieces of an old friend...... Gruesome.

                            Got the head all assembled and ready to go. Last thing to do is adjust the valves once I get some feeler gauges.

                            Also, powder coated the turbo compressor housing and some pulleys.
