I used cast coat aluminum when I painted my upper
thought it came out pretty well, and then I sold it for double what I bought it for   |

It's a gt40, but didn't have the plate, so I slapped one on there.
I bought bbk tb/spacer, upper and lower intake, p heads for $350
then sold the heads and intake for $300
= tb/spacer for $50 | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes | Rate This Thread |  Linear Mode | |
