Pretty anodized car parts. I sent them off last Friday and got them back today.

Mike, these parts look terrific! Let's see them on the car now.

Great build! I started the path of putting the 109 block in my Camaro, but with the price of having to buy everything it was just too expensive. I have since gone with the Series II 3800 and a turbo.

As said, get to work putting them on the car.

Just awesome

Ask and ye shall receive. Parts are back on the car.

I don't know why Baer didn't anodize this cap to match the hub, but it looks better now. Better than the cheap center caps that weld gives with the wheels.

Fuel rails and every fuel fitting that I modified is now redone in black anodize. No issues with E85 now.

Pulleys all back on. That is an a/c delete pulley on there now where the compressor would be. I bought the sanden compressor and have to make some adapter brackets for it to work on the stock accessory bracket.

Thermostat housing and cam sync bracket are also now black.

Shock brackets and rearend fill cap are black now.

Starting on the tubing work. Hope to knock the rest out tomorrow.

Got the intercooler tubes redone. The downpipe still fits. That's probably the first part that I've been able to just put back on without modifying.

Thank you. I started a new job and have been traveling for the last couple weeks for training. Once I get back home and get settled into the new job, I'll get back to the car.

18x9 Weld RTS front with 5.1" backspacing and high pad brake clearance. 245/40/18 MT Sport Comp tires. SC&C stage 2 front suspension with SPC lowers and Baer T4 brakes.
18x11 Weld RTS rear with 5.7 backspacing and medium pad brake clearance. But, the rearend is narrowed about 3/8" per side. Frame is notched and stock wheel wells are stretched about 1". 305/35/18's M/T Drag Radials on the rear

Just standard black. The pulleys should have been hard coated. But it was a lot of money and for two different processes between the batch, I would have had to pay two minimum charges.

Justin@EntropyRad 03-12-2015 12:55 PM

yea, setup costs get rough
 
I hope the pullies dont turn purple. Im betting they did a good job and the parts wont discolor
