Microblue bearing coatings? Has anyone tried the microblue process on an LSx based engine yet? I was wondering how much benefit could be realized from having the cam, main, and rod bearings treated along with the crankshaft, camshaft, valves, and piston rings. If you aren't familiar with microblue, here's a link to their site that has a bunch of good info on it. I've talked to one of the guys there and he made some pretty impressive claims.

I have not done the micro process but have done they moly (looks black)on the bearings there is not dramatic horsepower to be gained but longivity is increased. You will see more from coating your rings then anything and again most results are the power will stay longer not increase it dramatically. If you go forced induction you will benefit from coating the chamber, valves and pistons. In the past I have used Swain Tech Coatings and had go results with there work.
