Nothing special... But during my head swap, I decided to brighten some things up. Love it or hate it, I think it came out ok.
Had a grey fast 92... Painted it up.

Crinkle coated valve covers, timing cover, and water pump.

Torque arm...almost ready to go on

And where it sits now, almost done...

As far as painting them... I cleaned each one really good, then sprayed an adhesion promoter on them. Then a light primer, then used high temp paint on them. I hung them on fishing line while spraying. Once done, I baked at 200 degrees for 2 hours so the paint could cure really good, then I polished them. Lots of work but they're shiny.

Get your thread/pitch and length, then pick some up from McMaster-Carr. They aren't a sponsor but they're a pretty generic site selling all kinds of non-car things so maybe mods won't delete it. Also get button head screws, IMO they look a little nicer...and they can be polished

Ehh, its a summer cruiser that sits in my garage for the most part... So if it leaks there should be fluid on my garage floor. After the engine is done and running, I will be getting a staggered set of either ccw classics or FM10's...
