I use a good shop rag soaked in carb cleaner to keep that just bead blasted look on heads, cylinders and cases.Greasy fingerprints will wipe right off.

Righteous!!!Looks GREAT !!!!!
It will be 1st of the week before I can get back on it. Raining again today and I leave for a red eye run to FL to fetch the Bridal Unit tomorrow. Fly out at 0525 and land at 1407, then 15 hours back in the car. You should have the parts in your hands by end of next week.
