Is it safe for the engine to powdercoat the rocker cover then? I've only heard of it one time happening. Could have been a faulty engine, but he said it was the powdercoating.

Depends if they painted inside the rocker cover. Retards if they did.

I think the problem was Beads left hidden in all the nooks and crannies from Bead blasting before painting that screws the engine internals,
seen some topics about it !

had mine done on the R33 with no problem.

Yes, sir, I covered them myself. I uses 12oz 2 x 2 twill weave carbon and it was a pain. Took 3 days per side, but the final result I am pleased with.
Yes, I saw pictures of the Z-Tune and decided to try to replicate as close as I could.
Thanks
