Polished compressor housing
I picked up a polishing kit from Harbor Freight some time ago, finally got a chance to use it. This is the housing of my new 64/71/14. Sorry for the poor picture quality.

that looks good. the bad thing is that polishing something makes it harder to shed heat. in other words your compressor housing will run hotter now.

MikeD, I'm sold on your idea. Did the Harbor Freight polishing kit perform as well as you expected? While most of my engine parts are at the machine shop the next few weeks, I may as well head out to the barn and start polishing.
Any body try the Duplicolor Engine Clear coat?
