before photos of right carb cover that will be tumbled

[Mike Anderson]

Just thought I would  post a couple of photos to show what tumbling can do for alum. parts. The pictures are of a right side 350 carb cover that Toystore Tom was so gracious to donate to my projects. I will post pictures after it is tumbled to show the results, may be a few weeks before I can get it in to the shop.
Later Mike

Mike,
It would be interesting to see what the differences in finish would be, tumbling vs. vapor blasting. Too bad you don't have another cover in about the same condition to see what might be achieved.....i.e. Test A vs. Test B sort of thing. That's some pretty significant oxidation that has occurred there! It will be interesting to see the results you achieve.

That carb cover will look nice when you finished with it!
Thanks.
