Beat you to it Ryan! Got this today around 3pm and i sold my old car so two good things happened for me today. The car was a 1986 Ford LTD Brougham. Badass i know!

These photo were taken with my 2MP camera phone, i still have not bought another digital camera.





Made in Austrailia. Yea baby!

The balancer looks great, too bad i wont be able to use it till i finish up my harness nightmare.

Oh and just for fun... heres the bro-ham:

LOL, there are more POS Ford pics in that post than of the balancer!

They tried to deliver mine today, but I wasn't home, and they delivered it so late that I won't be able to pick it up until the morning. I got the Race Balancer, so I'll get pics up ASAP.

Got my balancer today. No pics yet, but I did do a weight comparison.

Stock = 7.2lbsRace = 5.7lbs

It also under driven and looks like sechs on the front of the motor.

I'm thinking about doing a black and blue theme now. Anybody ever heard of getting valve covers anodized?

I dont think many manufactures make a pure aluminum valve cover, more like alloy when casting. When anodizing the metal has to be pure if not the alloy in the aluminum will burn off causing problems.

I read up on doing anodizing as I plan on adding it to my types of services.

Guess I'm back to having you powder coating mine again. Think you could get it close to that color and texture?

That Color reminds me of Hawaiian blue that powder coaters use.



I would throw a Flat clear to kind of mimic the anodize look.

Like this cover I did with Candy Blue and Flat clear on top.





I also have a color in stock called Anodize Blue thats supposed to look like Anodizing.

Good cause I've only used the anodized blue twice, I was originally gonna do anodize blue on my CA covers but I went a different route.

Dont worry about the special, Mods get hook ups, Admins get baller hook ups, its part of the agreement we made for me to be a Vendor

Haha got the race balancer instead of the normal one? I guess its fair seeing as your check (like one I sent out recently) went on a world tour before making delivery.

Don't get me started on the post office. Those f***ers really threw a monkey wrench in the works.I wanted the race balancer, I didn't get one though.

Here is the race balancer.



As you can see, that is not what I have.



I have a standard balancer with no accessory pulleys. So does Ryan.

Ricky's on the case though, no worries. As long as the post office is left out of it, sheesh.
