Can you take some fine sandpaper or steel wool to the cap and remove all the markings??

Has a billet rad cap cover. You could get it and either coat it or put a brush finish.

I have a fancy billet one from AFCO, however I have a problem.

The DSE closeout was designed for radiators with the cap on the passengers side. My dual pass unit has the cap on the drivers side. This meant my space was limited in regards to cap size. If you look close you can see how I "clearanced" the DSE cover to give a bit more room for a radiator cap. I could run a billet cap but it needs to be close in size to the Stant cap.

I just want something non-shiny that blends. I'm sure there's something out there, just been a low priority.

Maybe, the part with the STANT writing is a seperate piece and I think I can remove it. The lettering is silkscreened on it and I was thinking of sanding it smooth and then having it powdered in either silver (to blend) or the titanium color to tie into the intake.

On a positive note, you know you are finishing a build when you start to fuss with the radiator cap. lol

Thanks man, your's is still the best color combo though

Coming to Fontana Super Chevy and Del Mar? I have scratched plans to have the car at Super Chevy so I can concentrate on getting it done for Del Mar. My being gone all next week on vacation is NOT helping the process, but it will make my wife happy and "a happy wife = a happy life"
