Stang8689 - where did you get the polished/chrome plate on top of the radiator?

 

Stang, one more question...the polished tube from radiator to block, where did you get that?

 

Very nice and clean.

 

me likey too and the 408 ...[8D]

any update blwn93gt?

 

Here is mine I just put in. Everything that appears to be chrome is powder coated. I bought a used Eastwood powder coat kit and kitchen oven for $50. Then I spent about $40 on paint. The headers are ceramic, but everthing else is powder coated which includes the water pump, timing cover, valve covers, serpentine brackets, and cobra intake.

Here is another trick that turned out good. Buy the Duplicolor transluscent paint(I used blue) and clean and paint your factory chrome fuel line. Here is a pic of mine.

this isnt in my car, but it is for an engine that's disassembled currently. the intake is for a 351 Cleveland 4v

this is a tricoat powder job basically a "kandy" with silver base transparent blue and clear

 

gt40 intakes are much better than stock ones and can be bought from junkyards off of cobra stangs, lightnings, and some explorer5.0's along with gt40 heads.
and a lot of people use trickflow because thay have good stuff and you can always find a deal on them in the classifieds.
also if you want to start polishing things ask almoststock for tips, as you can see he polished EVERYTHING! and if i had the patience i would too

 

ive polished a few things.. but how do you do it? whats the secret? how do you have the patience for that? do you use a dremel? or just all hand sanding? this is driving me nuts
