Re: 55 make over
day 7: got the heads back from NAPA, we had them redecked, valve job, checked over and wanted them vatted cleaned and looking new if possible. apparently the vatting is not what it use to be, they still had dirt in the bolt holes, all over the head and still had paint pen marks on it. so i spent pretty much 3/4 of the day foaming them out with Gunk cleaner. i then got to work with a brass brush to clean out the guts and took a small soft steel wheel to the outside to get the dirt out of the pits. they turned out nice. i went ahead and polished the ends out for a little bit of wow factor and keep the bling on them if any part of them are seen.
ends were done in the following; DA sand with 220grt, 320grt.. then small 3" polisher; 800grt, 1200grt, 2000grt... then DA trizac; 3000grt, 5000grt, 8000grt... then hand rub polish with soft rag; SINISTER devil brew metal polish.
