Ok, well My IMRCs started sticking a couple summers ago, and I had a bad donut gasket in my Cam cover for about the same amount of time.
Well, I ziptied the IMRCs open a while back, and the gasket didn't affect any driveability at all. I kept telling myself i'd Powder Coat all the parts when I took them off. i have access to all the equiptment, I just supply the powder.
Unfortunately, I never got around to tearing this bish down until last week when I took it out of storage for the season.

So a buddy came over and helped me tear it all apart.

Here's what I started with...

Here's most of the parts after i powder coated them.

Here's the "finished" product. Still need to add a few aluminum pieces including the spark plug covers. Need new wire looms as well, so don't mind the messy wires.
I was going for a clean, low key look.

Hey, thanks guys. Seems like everyone likes it. I figured some would say it was too dark in there.
i love it though.

And yes, he's pulling the coolant tube out (or trying to).

WD-40, spray silicon, pry bar, etc. Did all that. Wasn't too bad, I thought it was going to be worse.
