Default Re: NEED TO CLEAN MY ALUMINIUM INTAKE

I'm thinking about buying a (used) commercial vibratory tumbler, like Mr. McNeish uses to attain the "look" many people think is so great.

Curious if other restorers at this site own their own large machines.

If after I show some results, might I be able to clean, tumble, restore misc alum manifolds, valve covers and cases for others at a "reasonable" price ????

I'm not a fan of glass beading aluminum and calling that restored. IMHO its not the correct "new look"

NOT a fan of glass beading intakes either. Real tough to find one in its natural state anymore.
