Nope, just sandblasted 21 years of grime off of it(suprisingly rust free from Japan), painted it with high temp header paint(vht), and threw it in the oven.

Now that the VC is on, I kind of want to sandblast it bare metal and paint the lettering individual, instead of the reverse. To match the Intake Manifold.
