[�.C.]

I heard AGD plans to anno them in the future but aren't doing it right now since there is such high demand for them.

not sure...

[ShowTime]

i dont see y it would void it your only adding color, its not like its going to change the proformance.

can anyone from agd comfirm this if i did anno it would it void the waranty???

Showtime, anodizing a valve would change the tolerances of the valve since there would be changes in the surface of the aluminum. Depending on how it is anodized, the anodizing might be thicker or thinner than AGD's factory job. Thusly your valve might not work so well any more, resulting in a logical reason for AGD to void the warranty of anodized valves. I'm not saying that they do void the warranty though, but it would be understandable if they did.

Part of the annoeing proccess requires them to acid wash the part . . .

YES. it will work, but it will void your warranty. the on-off pin is timed to the thousandth of an inch. even the thinnest changes in the thinkness of the valve can mess up the timing of the sear/on-off assy. I dont recommend doing it.

I believe AGD said something awhile back about sending out unannoed valves. You get them annoed then send them back to AGD to have them laser engraved. I believe this is true, you may wanna contact them via email or phone.

they may SOMETIME...not any time soon though
