That's a nice looking engine bay (cosmetically speaking). It came at a steep cost though (engine didn't run correctly afterwards). Let this be a warning to those who don't do their homework before attempting a full wire tuck.

 

pNut's sedan = so much full of win.

Nice reminder, Chris.

 

hey Kurtis! quick question man, how long is the hose that replaced your OEM front/upper coolant hose?

 

Pretty sure it was 3' in length. Earl's Pro-Lite 350. Can't remember if it was -8 or -10.

 

thanks man, much appreciated!

 

I love this thread.

 

has anyone, besides those of you who have repainted the entire car, had the front clip just behind the grill painted? how hard was it to access, as in can i disassemble myself and bring to a body shop, and how much should i expect to pay to have it sprayed? also, same question applies to the wiper cowl

 

The radiator core support is a large piece and takes quite a bit of work to remove for painting. It's doable but was too much work for me to bother. The windshield cowls are easy. They're held on by 3 or 4 10mm M6 bolts.

 

Thanks for the answer, i had been wondering that for a while

 

That sedan on the last page had one very sexy color!!! Not many cars can pull that off but it looks hot

 

Did you paint those blue caps or ...? They are definetly not the oem caps I do t think? I wanted to find those but don't know what they are called lol

 

those are pi-thon caps

 

I had mine painted... cant remember how much it was, it was done with some other stuff... doesn’t matter now though because the entire car has been painted since then.

If you paint the covers over batter and brake fluid, I think it looks good to paint the rad core support too (more important than the plastic under wiper, imo).

 

Marcus where did Randy get the bradded (sp?) radiator hoses

 

damn i wanna do this but im not sure if Serengetti (sp?) Sand paint under the hood will look good
