I finally got to meet Fred, and see how much of a difference powder coating
makes. I'll bet that if they made Signal red powder coat, Fred would be

seriously, his sample intake manifold/carb setup, half powder coated and
half not was incredible. So was his car.
I look forward to doing this next year.
