because the CSA on the victor jr is SMALL, the Victor E was a deeper plenum as well. Super Victor will kill both, especially ported.

Thats why the Vic E is not the same intake as the Vic Jr. Kinda a step up from the Vic Jr. Similar..but not the same.

I have a Super Vic now. Ported by LE.

Well the clear I use is both heat and chemical resistant so no worries about turning yellow. The newer powders are alot more durable than just a couple years back.

Try a light coat of Duplicolor Cast Coat Aluminum. It has the same color as bare aluminum & will be virtually undetectable if you put on a light coat, only it will be easy to clean. If you put it on too heavy, it will still look good, but gets more of a shine like a metallic silver paint.

Here is a picture of mine.

That does look good, Lonnie. I already TQ'd the intake on so I'll just let it eat how it is.
