I've been wanting to polish this GenV blower I purchased two years ago. Unfortunatey, I didn't have the zillion of hours needed to get it done myself. :unsure:

A guy named Jason Farnworth (Gr8RacingFool) on ClubGP started offering this service to other members. I sent my plain looking blower to him 3 weeks ago...come this Wednesday...I will get this in the mail:

I'm so stoked that I'll be able to finally get my engine bay completed. :)

If thats all he's charging, hell, run with it, that is cheap for what looks liike absolute top quality work. Wish I knew how he got it to look that good, guess I'll have to figure it out for myself.

Some parts are chrome plated and some are polished.

Either way, that is going to be one engine bay that Id love to gyrate my hips at.

Is the casing chrome plated, and if so, how did he keep the chrome out the inside? If it is polished, I'm gonna have to work extra hard on mine to try and get it looking half that good.

Anything that was aluminum (SC housing and snout) or stainless was polished. Items like the TB bracket, the PCV cover, and plug wire holders are regular steel and were chrome plated.
