Trying to produce something as nice as Daniel's work is improbable. I am doing what I can with the hand dealt me.

KC We will use Ford 4.6L 4V coil covers (made of aluminum) and CnC the top surface until they are blank or buy blanks and use a CnC machine to write what we want, powder coat and whallah! In the end, they will look nice, but not be a God's head Colex work of art.

Only because they don't have the same equipment at their disposal that Jerry has.

if you are using the stock 4v cop covers they are cast aluminum.

powder coat away because you will never get a billet aluminum finish out of the surface.

over the holidays i will do some cmm work and get the ball rolling

down side is i only like doing things once :eek: so after one run i doubt i'll do more, it gets boring.

custom engraving can be done but if it's anything other than a standard lettering format it gets expensive.

I'll get mine first, got a garage spot reserved and a room at Hotel LJI :P, one thing for sure, you had best sign up for your parts, Jerry will do them once, maybe twice, then no more. The work from his shop is second to none, kinda like his car collection.:D

You clearly haven't seen Jerry's work then :rolleyes: He dims the lights, lights some candles, puts on smooth jazz, and makes magic out of metal.
