RB26DETT Surge Tank (Polished)

[CursedGTR]

I just finished this thing this weekend. Took me a while as I started out with 40 Grit sand paper and worked my way up to 2000. Anyways, I am going to sell it soon I just want to make sure I did not miss anything. Tell me what you think.

Pimp. You must love stroking it. JK, Thats allot of work. Keep going with the valve covers, center cover, and front cover.

Did you do it all by hand? That's tedious work. I'm still working on my valve covers and I want to do the intake plenum as well.

[CursedGTR]

Yeah I did it all by hand it only took about 6 days worth the work but my finger tips are not thanking me for it.

As far as the valve covers and such go I am having them custom painted by a guy that does Harley Davidson Paint jobs here in Okinawa. He is pretty good so I told him to use his imagination and make it look good. He is really good friend of mine so I am getting a good deal on the work. I am just waiting to see what he comes up with.

thanks. and hopefully they aren't harley oriented when you get em back. =p

I will post pics when they are done.

It would look cool if you had him airbrush the valve covers so it looked like they were clear. All the cams and lifters showing.

[CursedGTR]

It would look cool, but lets see what he comes up with first. I told him to use the dull colors and make it look dead or ancient. I figured that would go nice with the raspberry color I intend to use.

that's really good looking

do you have the BEFORE photo?

[CursedGTR]

No I don't. It was a typical RB26DETT Intake Manifold just cast and bad looking. I forgot to bring a camera when I got started on it.
