Slant 6 Turbo 68Dart Project
Well, still waiting for parts in the mail.
SO I went ahead and glass beaded the exhaust manifold I'll be using and cleaned it up a bit. I'm not sure what I'll have on it - be it coating, or a wrap. Has anyone used a manifold paint successfully? The last one I tried did not work at all, and I baked it and followed the directions as it stated.
And I wanted to dress up a different valve cover design to incorporate the turbo. Something simple but bright. Still don't have an idea yet, but I took one of my old VC's that had an older paint job I did, and am going to use that.
I cut the oil riser off, and the bracket that held the heater hoses, since mine run along the fender and this would be unused.
This way I don't have to go back to the old breather that had to attach to the air cleaner cover. I can still use my newer open element breather.
I put it in the blaster and got 90% of the paint off easily. ALl of the rustoleum came off, but the 1shot I used on the top to make the star design, would not budge. Impressive paint. I'll have to strip that part.
Just passing time...
