[BIGS]

[novait]

polished head and carrier all the way.going to try and polish mine up if i ever get round to it.

[*Dave*]

How do i polish it all up to those standards^^^^^

A lot of elbow grease Get a can of carb/brake cleaner, and a wire brush to clean the head up.

You can just spray the head/cam housing silver, but polished looks cooler.
And yeah, that rocker cover is a plastic version.

My old engine with the head/cam housing sprayed silver, and a grey rocker cover:
