I've painted over gold iridite or cadmium and it never seems to last. I'm not too worried about the look at moment.

Yes it should make some good power! :thumbsup:

The chassis is once again upright. I still need to add some more tubes but it's steadily getting closer to paint.

Here are some close ups of my TIG work. With every joint, the quality improves.

Thanks Trey. I know my TIG work is improving, but every time I look at them I see flaws! Practice makes perfect I guess! :weld:

Finally got a chance to look at the engine porn pics on something larger than a phone screen... Hubba Hubba!!!

Chassis looks alright too ;)

Nice thing about TIG is that as you get better you can go back and fix/rerun the beads you don't care for anymore.
