Thanks Steve!
I have some more updates... and they're pretty ridiculous.
Today my friend Jay and I spent all day preparing a few things for both our cars.
I brought my cylinder head which I had spent nearly 2 hrs masking off in order protect all critical surfaces from powder coat. I left a few studs in because I intend on removing them and replacing when done. Anyway here are some pictures of that.
This is the head before:
(sorry for soft pic the camera didn't want to focus on the puffy cylinder head... powder has a weird effect when not cured)
Once baked, this is what came out...
