here is the new chassie i got today for 150 dollars it is in excellant shape for a 99 srx with 6000 miles look at the exchangers. also here is some of the finished powdercoat chrome. i also bought a whole key housing and a piston for 25 dollars and the kid said i can have the whole botton end cases crank stator and flywheel for free. nothing wrong with the bottom he blew 1 piston and wanted to part it out.

Looking good amato... I have to hit ya up for some powder coating this summer, Have one more trip planned before I can take them apart again..
 
What are you going to do to the crank?
Has it been welded? is it true?
 
i put together one of my motors today and also finished some powdercoat here is it in the sled nice and bright. here are some parts getting ready to be polished. what do you think of the wire covers i have on them. they are plastic chrome loom. looks like steel braid.

What powder coating powder are you using for the chrome finish?? Is it a 2 step process with the powder and a clear second coat??
 
I might want my heads done can you also do Exhaust? or will this burn off?

I just happen to be doing a SRX resto also Weird but i am making mine a Cross country SRX.

Looking good keep up the good work
