Thought it was, they charged me 20 to do a Cossie cam cover.

once my 3 crates of parts have arrived I'm going to send a load of stuff up.

the more you give them the cheaper it is
cos if they are only doing 1 black part then they have got to fire the oven up just for that so thats why its dear for 1 part

have you got about the same as me...???

if so it will be around £180 for the lot...

I'think I'll have a little less but close

heres a pic of the cam cover, I had to wet&dry off the coating to get the alloy back. Shame they cant offer that.

I guess the baking process reset the steel and removing the spring effect.

yer it might do as there oven gets very hot to set the powder

mind you them springs i had done were 200lb so they might be about 120lb now and thats they way i like them....
RS2000&MEXICO

Looks good though gaz, great for the pod & traveling on a trailor.....

if I remember right the process is called re-tempering.
Kel
11-02-2005, 16:43
temper.
(1) In heat treatment, to reheat hardened steel or hardened cast iron to some temperature below the eutectoid temperature for the purpose of decreasing hardness and increasing toughness. The process is also sometimes applied to normalized steel. (2) In tool steels, temper is sometimes inadvisably used to denote carbon content. (3) In nonferrous alloys and in some ferrous;alloys (steels that cannot be hardened by heat treatment), the hardness and strength produced by mechanical or thermal treatment, or both, and characterized by a certain structure, mechanical properties. Or reduction of area during cold working.
