I just picked up a TF Street Heat U/L manifold for $50 bucks yesterday [sm=wootwoot.gif] The upper manifold is all scratched up and it doesnt look that great. I either want to powder coat it or polish it. Has anyone ever polished a TF manifold?

Also, if I do powder coat it. Should I do black, silver or red (the color of my car)?

MAKE SURE YOU VOTE!!! Thanks.

EDIT: Te motor will be all powdercoated (brackets, etc.) and mostly polished (TB, EGR, CAI, ALT, PS, etc.) I think thats the way I want to go; just keep that in consideration!

1st off, F U for finding one for 50 bones. 2nd, PC it black w/ red letters. That would be PIMP-tacular!!

The only problem is... I contacted a powdercoating place near my house today and he said hes not sure if they can do it because of the trickflow in the center. Well they CAN but hes not sure if they can go around it. How would I get the letters to be red? That would be a good idea... I didnt think about that.

to get the letters red mask it off.........i used to powder coat,and i'll tell ya this much when we bake them you will get distortion.

if i was you i'd get it pollished.

A good powdercoater shouldn't have any problems doing whatever you want. Here are some pics of a guy in Dallas, Paul's Powdercoating:

I'll get some more pics in a minute..... He is very affordable, so if you like his work, let me know and I'll get you his info.
