Tony,
That blue paint job is fantastic.  It looks like the safety wire on the
two lower bolts should be redone to pull CW on the bolt heads, however.

Thanks Aubrey

That's actually powdercoat it's called tiger blue it's shot in two parts
first is a silver then a transparent blue it looks like it has metal
flakes in it. cost me $350.00 bucks not cheap but looks great. As far
as the safety wire goes you are correct it does need to be redone.

Tony

Some people spend that much on their whole engine :)
