Dry Sump Valve Cover

[greengoblin]

Cast parts do not anodize well. Also the surface finish has to be PERFECT. It's just as bad as polishing really.

Awesome, as usual Kevin!!

Better get some installed pictures up here when the time comes.

I hope so! Andrew is going to be in the states on the 13th and is working on his car. I hope to get feedback and some picures soon!

How?

This is going on Drew's car which is located in CA.

Yes. But how would you see that if you're going to visit Magnus? Or did you mean "stop by on the way to Magnus"? If so, good luck seeing as he lives in Japan and isn't really back here often.

This part came out super nice, beyond all expectations. It is special and really made the engine bay.

Check out the photos!

Looks awesome!


Andrew, you need to post up some updated pictures of your car. I'm sure a lot has changed in the past couple years!

Glad your happy with the VC sir!

Thanks for posting up installed pictures Andrew!

Looks awesome, love the color. May I ask exactly what blue that is called? Would like to pc some parts on my truck in that color. I'm also in the process of shaving my valve cover, but only the lines on it, probably painting it white though.

How do you fill oil then? (sorry if this was covered I didn't see it)

Via the dry sump's tank.

Like John said. Andrew's car has a dry sump system on it. So there is a large remote oil tank mounted in the car where the oil is stored.

My poor little car is going through a bit of a rebirth right now. It keeps getting still born, when its ready I will show everyone. Some things that sound easy to everyone who hasnt done it have been very challenging but were necessary to get to the next level. Its harder to make fast progress like I used to since I live in Japan full time now.

Thanks for answering my questions, the VC looks amazing and that color is gorgeous.
