trying to clean prep and paint the cam covers, got anal and ended up trying to strip them. Still not happy.

There looks the be a casting hole as well. Can this be welded, epoxy or is this why the black coating is so tough.
Are there replacements?

If you get them blasted, Make Sure You Check For Sand Under The Baffles! I had to take mine out and clean under them. And I too have a set of red one's I'd be willing to sell. But i really don't want to ship them.

They are cast aluminum so they can be welded.

In that last picture, that's the strangest torque converter I've ever seen.

My converter looks like that Lou. But that hydraulic line sure isn't going to flow much. [emoji16]
