Just painted throttle body--pics available

[bgn87]

Just painted my throttle body and it came out awesome. I used Eastwood's Aluma-blast paint and then clear coated it with some urethane. Man it looks awesome. I've got the aluminum vaccuum block and BOP's IAC angle boss also. Should look real nice when I finish polishing the plenum. I've got pics I can email if anyone's interested.

Great Job! How many hours on that effort? Where did you get your billet vacuum block?

Keep us posted on your work on the plenum!

The vaccuum block is from Kirban.
I don't have much time at all on the throttle body. I took it apart, cleaned it up with steel wool, then shot it with about 3 coats of the Aluma-blast. Let it dry for a day, then shot it with the clear. Let it dry for a day and put back together.
The plenum is another story. I've got several hours of sanding on it already. I'll have it polished soon and I'll post pics of the finished assembly soon.
