thanks for the comments Yea bro new battery is in now.
polishing the manifold took alot of hard work but happy with the result
made the battery box at work out of alu! then the whole inside is done out in plastic. If anyone wants one i can make more
All battery cables were moved / rewired to make it look tidyer.

That looks really smart. Great job of the manifold. Some Samco radiator hoses would look good.

So it is a case of taking it off and getting it on a bench like I did with my old VTS cam covers ... long that, they took long enough and they were rectangles lol.
Thought you might have had it chromed or something!
Inlet & the blue Typhoon look good the rest is not to my taste, but I appreciate the effort :).

I'm assuming he worked his way up through fine wet and dry paper, and then finished with someting like Autosol metal polish. That's what I do anyway
