Message	Just finished up 80hrs of labor intensive plenum, tb's and water pipe polishing and want to finish up my plenum with a little interior renovations, aka intake runner polishing. I've been able to get around 4-5'' of the insides cleaned and polished up well just using a Dewalt drill and 180-400 grit 2.5'' flap wheel sanding discs. However, there is another 7-10'' of runner I cannot reach. Is a flex extension for a drill the best option, or are there other tools or methods to get a better, cleaner finish easier? as/image_zps3cb9dfb3.jpg 1980 Datsun 280zx 1991 Nissan 300zx TT 2006 Nissan 350z

This is likely more applicable - ZXoltan 17:19:40 12/27/13 Agree with others, turbo'd cars don't get much benefit. - whitepearl 19:40:58 12/27/13 We're only talking about texture, not size ;-) (n/m) - ZXoltan 19:55:33 12/27/13 agree (n/m) - aliaZ 17:42:33 12/27/13 We always left the sand cast as it was manufactured>> - ZUL8TR 09:41:40 12/29/13 As a data point, - Broke_as_**** 13:06:22 12/29/13 I'm going to give this a try on my next plenum run.
