Icon6 Valve Cover Repaint

Recently went through my old pictures. Every picture has a story. Car was already making around 380hp at that time and the blow-by crankcase pressure was pushing oil out every "hole". Had (2) 10AN fittings welded to the valve cover for a catch can. Obviously ruined the paint so I decided to repaint it using VHT SP204 Wrinkle Paint:

Nicely done. Or, you could have avoided the entire -10AN fittings valve cover style in the 1st place.

How to have a proper catch can setup without those silly -10AN fittings on the Valve Cover

Thanks for the feedback! I ended-up removing it all together after awhile. Venting it through exhaust now. Works great, though it does smoke a little
