Dean,
Do you live anywhere near Long Island? Rudy LI NY The shinier the surface the more poorly it conducts heat. Dark matte finish is best. Better heat transfer. I don't have any idea how much difference it really makes though. I live in NY and heat is not a big problem if everything is hooked up correctly. Sorry for such a long non-answer, I'm feeling verbose.

I know chrome, while it looks cool, actually adds more heat to the equation. The reason why I'm asking is the recent engine fire I guess is an opportunity for me to do something with the fan shroud. I know of a local powder coater in town. I don't know of any local chrome shop or porcelain coating shop. But, if anybody has done this, I thought they might have pointers on it.
