I did a bunch more blasting and painted these parts. I found a hood setup after a lot of looking. It came from Ontario. I'm going to try to finish the sandblasting before it gets too cold out. I like to do that job in the fall since I can wear a Ski-Doo suit for protection and not have a melt down.
For those who keep asking how much paint you need for a truck, these parts took a gallon for one coat. With stuff like the seats you waste way more than you use, but the shop floor gets a fresh look.

Dave,

good to see you have continued on the C8 again! Am I correct in assuming your C8 has the cowl vents? Could you post a close up of the tube and valve which sits behind the vents?

Alex
