see, that is where you fucked up, gotta open up the house.
my dad and i powdercoated most of my engine throughout the week, my mom only got pissed cause we were using her oven
"are you guys going to be done in time for me to make dinner?"
never had any problems, but then again, my father and i make everything from entertainment centers to a murphy bed we just finished, to my datsun race car that were building. just runs in the family
oh well, i still want a big *** oven, anyone know of a bigass one thats not 220v?

The powdercoating gun came from Harbor Freight Tools. Cheap chinese tools, perfect for the average work-at-home mechanic, not recommended for professionals though.
The radio came from Crutchfield, but it didn't come with the install kit. Sold separately. I just customized it with a dremel for my application.
Update:
I put the turbo back on the other day, but I happened to not tighten the oil return line. So after sufficiently smoking the neighborhood and making it back home safely without tearing anything up, the powdercoat job held up just fine.
Long term?
I still haven't had the time to fix the oil leak.

The chemicals released during the curing process can make you very sick if inhaled, let alone if ingested orally. It is absolutley retarded to use a oven used for food preparation for powder curing.
Give your ******* head a shake.
