The Skyline restoration business is clearly his number one passion anyway. Dude has awesome content, awesome business sence, an eye for perfection, love this channel. Not to mention he has like the best team possible, Josh is a wizard with these JDM cars, Ben is a master fabricator, filmer is killing it with the editing, and now with Rudnick back he's got some humorous content in the shop as well. It's a sick AF environment.

    Tommy, as a paint professional, you DO NOT want to polish something before you powdercoat it. You NEED TO HAVE AN ANCHOR PATTERN. The powder needs something to grip to after it melts. It will 100% chip and flake if you polish before powder coating. Especially because you live in the northeast. It will look fine at first, but in a year or so, all hell will break loose.
    The proper thing to do is would be to media blast it, and powder coat it @ 5 mils DFT or so. 5 mils will hide all of the bumpy stuff from the casting.
    AGAIN, please do not polish parts before you powdercoat them.
    Edit: if the metal is that pitted, you need to repair the metal before blasting and powdercoating.

    tommy's theory about the valve cover breathers. Putting the fittings deep down prevents oil from "climbing" the walls of the valve cover and "wicking" up into the an lines. it basically creates a chamfer (kinda) for the oil to drip off of rather than climbing the lines unobstructed.

    I use the MINE's baffles in mine, factory-style blowby caps, but it does still push a fair bit of oil into the catch can within just in a few laps. Also, very cool seeing seeing the RB28 step 2, but definitely would've been in the same boat with the disappointment in the finish quality. It's an engine that costs around as much as the whole car, after all.

    I’d recommend investing in a real hydraulic crimping machine for hydraulic lines with the dies for stainless fittings because they look 100% cleaner and more oe also a way more sleek look versus “a/n lines” that everyone uses. The fittings are half the size and it’s all stainless. You can source them from a local Parker hydraulic shop at first

  • @BigCool95
    @BigCool95 2 года назад +1

    You might end up sucking up oil from those fittings in the valve covers if you lower them like you’re thinking. Especially with them being in the rear. Under acceleration the oil is going to pool in the rear of the heads and might suck up into those fittings. If your solution was a fix, you think the brilliant engineers at hks and suck would figured that out already.
