is the tungston carbide coating a common thing to be done on other lumps? Whats the life expectancy?


Always fancied having a go at this on an old crank

Did manage to get up a fairly steep hill at 1200 rpm in second when the clutch cable snapped though *frown*

Carbon rocker cover back off as it is all distorted(don't like heat) *frown*
