Hello all, hope things are going well for you.
Starting to plan getting the car ready for some shows and spring/summer cruises. It is currently sitting in my shop with all 4 wheels off the ground and the tender hooked up (hate seeing it that way, but it will be out of layup soon).
One thing I am still wondering about is this- my tunnel ram intake is newer and in great shape, but it has a light brown colored "tint" to it that irritates me. Most folks probably don't even notice it, but I do. It just does not look as nice as the other chrome and painted parts of the motor. Not sure what causes this discoloration, but I don't have any fuel leaks. I guess it could just be how the aluminum ages or shows grime, but I would like to clean it up a bit. Does anyone have any ideas what solution will help to brighten up the aluminum intake? Like most non-chrome intakes it has kind of a rough texture to it that makes it a little harder to clean up. Any ideas? Thanks in advance folks and happy/safe motoring! -Glenn
