Just getting some parts powder coated and wondered about the valve cover. Mine is a 69 F motor so the valve cover is black, or was once. Is powder coat a good idea? And should I do inside and outside or just outside?
I have googled it and found some folk saying it can peel off the inside and get into the engine. I guess the same could happen with paint. Also some saying the powder coat finish isn't smooth enough to prevent leaks and the cover can warp in the process.
Any experience on this would be appreciated.
