sprayed99 Posted September 27, 2009 Report Share Posted September 27, 2009 Decided to fix a small crack in a set of vortec 6000 3 piece covers and go ahead and do so painting. volant intake tube smoothed as well as the fuse cover. Tell what you think of the top cover all smooth (removed the vortec 6000). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least for now they are I might paint them then put them up for sale then start another set.... depends on the outcome of the new fast intake. If people see good enough gains I wont be able to use the covers because I will be going fast 102 and a 102mm throttle body. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sprayed99 Posted September 27, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 27, 2009 Just wondering why you misted the black paint on them for? guide coat..... helps when wet sanding so you know that you have corrected every single little blemish. did you ever paint those ones for your dad? these are those covers.... he got them and didnt like them. So im just using them on my truck for now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
