    engine looks great  :thumbsup:

 

How/what paint did you use for the 'stone effect' on the cam cover.

 

Also did you brush paint all the brackets? How did you get such a smooth coat?

 

Cheers 

The cover will be wrinkle finish paint. And I think most of the black brackets are alloy from DSN Retrosport.

A good tip is to gently heat the bare block/head before you paint it (or before primer if you use one)

The rocker cover is Wrinkle finish paint, The 'VHT' brand is the best.

 

Most bit's are DSN billet alloy bits or bit's I've machined myself and then anodised. The clutch arm is brush painted with black paint from the above Mowog green link.
