powdercoat

Was wondering if anyone has ever had your motor powdercoated? I was thinking of getting my plus 12 painted black and was hoping to get some info from someone who's had it done before I start getting price quotes. Thanks.

..for the price of a shop to do it, you could probably order supplies from here http://www.eastwoodco.com/ ad do it yourself for almost as cheap and have the material and tools to do more motors later.........:nod: looky looky http://www.eastwoodco.com/jump.jsp?i...erID=68&KICKER

if you want a black crankcase, it may be cheaper and better to buy a jp crankcase.

Since the black crankcase is mostly a marketing thing, I'd get some REALLY dark shades. The'll make it look black ;)

Every kind of layer on you crankcase is making resistance for heatdisposing and finally it will do nothing to your performance.
