Default Got my Bo White tb in yesterday
When I got it everything was bead blasted so I decided to paint it. Sorry last pic is a little blurry. I smoothed out the casting mark on top, cut off the coolant lines, and polished the return spring also.

Looks good , if you want/need to do some touch up were you over painted or over spray you can spray brake clean on a rag and rub it away.

Just got it installed and got the maf out of there now too. I started it up after having the battery unhooked and I was really surprised how smooth it idled right away not sure if thats from the tb or removing the maf or a combo of both.
