I’ve been on Stangnet for over 6 + years (plus over a year of just reading what ppl posted) before I ever joined.
So I think I’m about ready now to start my 1st official thread; that is unless you want to call posting in the feed back area staring a thread?
I’ve always been intrigued by the looks of the GT-40 tubular intake, and some yrs ago Marc (Stangnet member) posted a pics of GT-40 Tubular that he had polished and since that time I’ve always wanted to try to see if I could duplicate what I saw.
So thanks Marc for the inspiration!
I got this in Nov.

And it turned out looking like this after spending about 26 hrs (spread over a 3 month period) of sanding and polishing the upper and lower.

Oh and btw... I’ve officially decided to call it quits when it comes to sanding and polishing any more aluminum.
From now on it’s either chromed or powder coated and I leaning more toward powder coating.
