Smog Diverter valve restoration (Plating)
I'm collecting parts to set up a Smog system and the Diverter valve I have has the Cap Painted "Gold Cad" and The Muffler Painted "Cast Grey"
Is there anybody out there that can perform a Plating restoration so that the Cap Is "Gold Cadmium" Plated and the Muffler is Grey Phosphated plated correctly? Thanks

I do not believe Steve does the plating on diverter valves as they need the can taken off to be plated properly. Contact Bill hodel in Ohio he replates them and does an excellent job.

Re: Smog Diverter valve restoration (Plating)
Bill Hoedel has an exclusive contract with DD to restore Divertor Valves...
I've heard of others being able to restore the Yellow Zinc DiChromate on stamped steel front piece, without removing it, but I have no contact info. Bill Hoedel's "guy" removes the piece, replates and reswedges zinc piece onto housing. NOT certain what is done to internals????

Don Dorfman was rebuilding them for Hodel as well as cosmetically restoring them. Don's work is amazing. I really miss ASL.
Scott Tiemann was also doing them at about 1/3 Hodel's price. Good Luck, BCD.

Re: Smog Diverter valve restoration (Plating)
I also do these. I have done them for plenty of very picky customes including Chris White and Rick George. We do the correct cynadide cadium plating not the common alakide water base type that is very common in the restoration field. I have plenty of picts available. My work has graced many of the top selling auction cars all the way to my 500k LS-6 conv. We also do brake boosters, backing plates, caliper brakets, solenoids, smog check valves,and relays.
