Re: cleaning aluminum intakes

Dave from Iowa, If you look at the M-21 Tailhousing in above pics....I had that "TUMBLED" in Aluminum media, for a relatively short time. The media looks like pyramid shaped 1/2" Dia Alumninum pieces????. I also had ORIGINAL (not the newer design polished) LT-1 valve covers done the same way.
I WONT say they are "DEAD-NUTS" factory the same, but I gotta tell you they look as good as it gets.......I used a LIGHT glass beading first to remove any misc blemishes...
