Hi!

Im going to polish my plenum after looking at some articles about it.

I wanna know if my sander is the right one to use, I have a rotating sander like this one

But mine is an older one.

Should I use one of those?

I assume you are talking about a LT1 intake? If so that polisher looks way too big to get into the cracks and crevices.

Here is mine:

My intake is coated with POR 20 but the throttle body and just about everything else is polished.

What did you use on the sander to polish all off that? I would like to polish a couple of things and am very intrested in doing it myself.

I don't do it myself, my water pump and throttle body was polished by www.hotrodlane.cc

Seems like I recall polishing the throttle body was 45.00 and I bought the new water pump already polished from them for about 325.
