Threebrand liked post by philminotti On thread : Restoring brushed finish

So, I tore into restoring the brushed finish on KMP736 today. I should preface by stating that I felt that Scotch-Brite couldn't handle the job....that opinion stemmed from when I tried to get rid...

I heard from David Kirkham today. He recommended dry red Scotch-brite. Apparently that is what they use to get the final finish. He also mentioned 400 grit sandpaper for trouble spots and then...

Jaydee liked post by philminotti On thread : Amp gage jumping to discharge and back?

Not trying to start anything here, but I just don't get why anyone wants an amperage gauge. Perhaps the originals had them, but that doesn't seem like a good reason. A voltage gauge gives you all...

Hi Lance. I bought my Pond block and stage 2 heads from Keith back in 2005. Over the last ten years, I've watched other builders do a better job with quality and especially responsiveness to...

maurice19 liked post by philminotti On thread : Kirkham finish

I like my brushed with polished stripes. That being said, it gets fine scratches across the brushed grain just by looking at it cross-eyed. I don't mind it as it gives it a bit of an authentic...

Blue66 liked post by philminotti On thread : Breakign down EFI options

I have FAST multi-port sequential system with a throttle body. I love it. I had to throw a grand at it to finally get it tuned properly, but that's EFI. Cubic dollars. I'm not a big believer in...

That looks great Rodney. I'm curious though.... If I really look at my bare KMP with a critical eye, the imperfections are obvious. (Makes it look "real-er" :LOL:) So, how much filling, blocking...
