is that just a flat black color then. Just wondering why you don't powdercoat that, cus of heat buildup?

Pappy

Thats correct. People I trust that build engines for a living have repeatedly told me to avoid it where possible.

Would it be better to just polish it then. Cus I want to do a total makeover of my quad and I wanted to powdercoat parts of the motor. Would you coat the side cases or can't you cus of heat. What would that cost too.

Pappy

its your call on the cylinder and head etc. i just coat parts, i dont figure out what you should do:D :blah:

i highly doubt it, but being in a position to draw negative feedback if an engine was to grenade and have my work blamed is a risk i prefer to avoid:p
