Need some help getting the cylinder and head cooling fins to have the factory look. Got the heads and cylinders back from bead blasting and they are dull grey any guidance on how to get that factory fresh look. Thanks

Posted many, many times, use a Brillo pad, under as hot a tap water as you can stand, and HAND burnish them.

same effect can be gained in a slightly different way

Polish to a reasonable shine, and then gently cut back with some Scotchbright,
