Re: What color should I paint my intake/valve covers ??

Well the headers are painted, white..... they look great!
Had to hang them outside for a few hours to fume off a little.








Tomorrow I'm going to try and bake them, though my oven might be to small..... I realy dont have to bake them, I can wait untill I install them and bake.
I was just afraid of scratching them or getting black finger prints all over them, paint isnt solvent proff untill heat cured.

Took a while to clean these headers up, the insides were full of weld splater, that shit could have clogged my new CAT.

Yes they are pretty big pipes, 2.5" at the collectors.

Going to be a tough job stuffing them in there too with out scratching them.
