Good Morning All,

Guy has been busy working on the getting the turbo's & Wastegates coated.
He offers Ceramic/Metallic Hi Temp Coating that is done in house.

Turbo's stripped and getting ready.



Since this is part Show Truck / Driver.
Guy wanted to make sure the Exhaust housings looked good,
so some extra time was spent cleaning them up.



You can see the before and after pictures of the Wastegate.
Plenty of time was spent on the wastegates cleaning them up.



Step one - The Hi Temp coating has been applied to the exhaust housings.



and the Wastegate.

Now the fun part - polishing up the exhaust housing.



It's getting there - much better then the original rusty version.



almost looks like a butt if you ask me.



It's really good working with a shop that does hi temp coatings in house.

They also coat piston domes, combustion chambers, valves, and do dry film coatings on pistons and bearings,
and even do special coatings on interior surfaces of blocks to aid in oil drainback and heat dissipation.
Currently they are working on a special anti friction coating using Tungsten disulfide.
These guys are serious when it comes to this coating stuff!

Good Morning All,

Well, Kenny's back at it.
We took some time off while we were waiting for a new gift from Goodmark Industries.



www.goodmarkindustries.com

So as you can see we received this giant box with a new ...........



........ Steel Cowl Induction Hood.



There will be plenty modifications made to this hood so make sure you keep coming back to see what we have planned.

Kenny & Travis also started making sure the body of the truck was ready for paint.



There attention to detail is way over the top.



Once again I want to Thank Goodmark Industries for seeing our project and wanting to be part of it.
I look forward to working with them on all my future projects.
