It's been awhile since I "touched" up :rolleyes: under the hood, and Im going to The Tower Shoppes to show the car this weekend, so I this is the first thing I noticed :notnice: ( of course the pic shows it without the red coil, which was covered with grease...cleaned that up too) (notice also the crap condition of the Wazee Pulleys :notnice: )

It's hard to get this area "mirror like" on the car, but you CAN shine it up really nice. (you can see the reflection of the belt)

looks good :nice: why was it all coverd with grease?

now ya need to polish up the dist

Well you see the dist in the first pic? That's what the coil looked like...and I DID clean that up to

For the "grease" ( it's really that oily powder residue on the wires etc) I use WD40, and just wipe off...it solublizes the oil quite nicely.

For the Metal...just go over it with some more metal polishing stuff and a Dremel. I have a larger really tight wheel I use with a drill for the top of the intake and the Vortech.

I got the decal from some Online place for about $10.

Thanks Joe, Pro, Chris (the "usual" polished stuff :rlaugh: )

Why you gotta make me post a pic of my motor? :p
It's so simple...just take some mineral spirits and spray it thoroughly and wipe it down real good. Mask some newspaper around it and cover the rest of the motor w/ a sheet. Primer2 light coats and then the regular procedures and you're done! :nice: You will appreciate it much more after it's dressed.
