Eye Candy! Huge pics!

Well, i was worried about starving the pump with the cell being in the rear so i decided to build a front mount cell. I called up my buddy Nick (13brenova) and he said he was down. I can't believe how well it turned out I figured i would share with everyone. I would also like to thank Nick for welcoming us into his house. His whole family was very hospitable and welcomed us in.

anodizing wasn't bad shouldn't be more then 100~150.. Definitely get it done. Don't bother with anything else..
Meth will just eat it up otherwise..

A clear anodize would be pimp. Scrub the **** out of it with soap and water to get the dirty water spots off left over from the plasma table. At the shop, we use a special medium and fine buffing wheel that goes on a low speed angle grinder that will put a really nice finish on the cell before anodizing. They don't use any paste or polishing compound, so the process is really fast. I'll talk to Jason to find out what they are called if you'd like. Can't wait to see the thing all plumbed in!
