Is that the Lydl spray gun?

I picked up one a couple of months back but yet to try it.

Got the old nitromors to work today and stripped my rocker covers, need to smooth them up a bit and move on to priming them.....have also discovered another cheap tune up mod which is to replace the stock inlet cam for another stock exhaust cam coupled with some vernier pulleys can get an increase in mid range power/drivability

you can have a laff at this one....MAGNOLIA ....magnolia what you may ask, base colour thats what eh!!! lol I needed a light colour was what I require for the base coat of my rocker/cam covers, I had used white smoothrite on the pulleys but was not happy with it and the only other light colour I had was MAGNOLIA smoothrite so that is why....I think they look quite fetching, yeah fetching the blowlamp

Nice one guys......I had wondered about suggesting moving all current threads in the announcement section to a new or other section but someone has beaten me to it......simple but effective for the time being.
