Where can I get my TPI Powder Coated??
Hi guys, well as a project if you will say for the winter I want to clean up the engine a bit. Well I have seen some pics of others TPI's i.e. Runners, Plenum, Throttle Body etc. Powder Coated. Where can I get this done?? Anybody do it themselves?? How complicated is it to take off the (plenum, runners, and TB)?? Anything else I should look at, getting it polished perhaps?? What did you guys do with your engines? Thanks to anyone that responds!!

There is a local shop called Taint Paint that I had do some powder coating on a carb style intake and some aluminum valve covers. Nice work.

there should be someone local in your phone book; take into consideration that powdercoating will cause your car to run warmer than if you were to polish it, but polishing is a lot more maintence. just a warning.
