The_aSSet Posted July 13, 2012 Report Share Posted July 13, 2012 So I started my valve cover project last week, good aftermarket valve covers seemed too expensive and I didn't want to have something everyone else had so I made my own! (yes I will be relocating the coil packs) Started with my regular valve covers Cut the nubs off using a portaband Grinded off the remaining material Used jbweld as my filler, works very nicely Sanded off the excess material using a orbital sander first, then a 3m block with 80 grit then 180 Cleaned them and sprayed with 2k primer. Monday they'll be sent out to Miller to get hydrodipped! Can't wait to see how they turn out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gmJake Posted July 14, 2012 Report Share Posted July 14, 2012 JB weld will hold up to the heat? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_aSSet Posted July 14, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 14, 2012 JB weld will hold up to the heat? Figured it would hold better than regular plastic filler. We'll find out lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
