Man Im SO happy to see that you didnt give up on your car. I've been watching your build since day one and to see and hear that your car burnt was a major heart break to see. ![](/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbs.gif) Lets keep up the good work!!

Something you may think about just as a suggestion on the hat. If it's mag then the dow 7 coating works with alky, and if it's aluminum check out electroless nickel. It's tough as nails, resists everything, and has a very cool look about it. The electroless nickel looks bad to the bone against flat black because it's not chrome looking, but it's kind of shiny and people never know what it is. I did some suspension parts in it and people ask if ti, or stainless. It just looks different and they can control exactly how much build up you want so it doesn't interfere with moving parts like powder or regular anodizing. Just a thought, and I wish you the best on getting her back together the way you want.
Another thing Jimmy, have you considered putting her on E85? It's not as corrosive, cheaper, and not so hard on the ole eye balls and throat. Guys are making 2500 with it forced and buying it at the pump.

Will the nickel coating work on other metals? Source?
