Powder coating during motor work... Need opinions
I'm getting ready to start my winter motor build and I'm going to send some parts to powder. I'm going to powder the rocker boxes, pushrod tubes and tappet blocks, cam cover, side and top tranny covers and air cleaner cover again if necessary. So here's where I can't make up my mind. Should I powder the parts gloss black or semi gloss like the rest of the bike? I was going to do black jugs and cylinders but I think with black rocker boxes it would be too much black. Should I do the primary or leave it gray? I'm going to vht the pipe for now and get it powdered down the road after I have it twisted.

I just picked up my PR tubes and lifter blocks and they look killer! I had them done like most my other parts in a black texture like the block and tranny.
I had them protect the mating services so they are smooth against the seal surfaces.
So, if there was a question to answer, I say, by all means, Go for it
Oh yeah, don't forget the swing arm nut cover if you haven't doused it yet with PC!
