I picked up a clean type 181 fan shroud I would like to have the flap holes and vent on top welded up and all the spot weld divots filled as to make the shroud as flat and smooth as possible for mirror black powder coat. I’d like the cylinder tin cut, trimmed and welded to accommodate oversized ported manifolds. I needs the rear tin, that fits like Chinese junk, modified to fit well. I normally complete these tasks personally but I’m seeking show quality results and I’m limited with my time.
I’d like to drop the engine off and pick it up ready for powder coat.
I’m in Orange County, ca.’
Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.
Earle
