When's it going back together?

Bottom end will probably be done next week then its on me. Once in my hands everyday until its done. 2 weeks I should be mocking turbos up. Gonna run a 364.5 FMW and a billet 488.

Enjoy those pistons, they were being a pita when coating. It's very hard to get an even coat when you have all the little cuts and corners. You end up with thin and thick spots. I re-coated several, sometimes more than one re-try. But it's gotta be perfect. I don't wanna put my name on a bad coating.

Most of the time they come out great first try, but if they don't pass I won't let them leave. If I catch something I don't like before curing I can wash it off and re-coat. After curing they have to be re-blasted and coated. Two hours curing time just to blast it back of and do it all again really tries ones patience lol. You definitely got your dollars worth.

That's good info Morgan. Can't wait to get some parts from you. I'll call you on Friday for some parts.
