[SEL] Powder Coating Engines

[Paul Maples]

Hey Gang, things seem to be a little slow on the SEL right now and since I
have been wondering about this I thought I would throw it out to the group.
Has anyone powder coated an engine and if so how did it come out? I know you
have to have one heck of an oven to do this and I figured that somewhere out
in cyberspace someone has bound to have built a homemade one and submitted
his plans. Probably have to sell the wife and kids to fire it just once but
still would like to know the feasibility of such a project.

Someone mentioned that this might have been discussed last year but I don't
remember seeing it but then again age is affecting my sight, hearing, and
reasoning ability so you will have to forgive me. If anyone has done this
let me hear about your results.

I guess another option would be to get the parts ready and have someone that
has the setup do the powder coating, wonder what this would cost for a
normal size 3 to 6 HP engine? Hey it don't cost a penny to wonder, at least
not just yet.

Thanks
