DId you guys just break that thing open to get the wires out? I didn't want to break it, so now I have wires that are visible from that point.

Work done at Technosquare

Finally got around to posting pictures of the work done at Technosquare. Special thanks to Howard, owner of Technosquare, Randy, and Marty for their help with this project!

Polished Timing Chain Cover
Polished Alternator
Polished Power Steering Pump
Polished Misc Brackets and Hex Bolts
Earls Clamps and SS Hoses

Before engine bay shot










Old Timing Chain Cover


Howard cleaning up the new cover.


Old alternator. Fugly..


Nice, polished Alternator casing


Randy assembling the Alternator


New Alternator, much, much better



Polished Power Steering Pump


Randy has to now figure out how to swap the Power Steering housing/internals.


All put back together....what a difference. Pictures don't do it justice...

Looks great, after seeing R-Ryde engine bays in person I will agree pictures don't do them justice at all they are ridiculously clean

Youre right about that Gord, are you back in Canada? I wanted to go to the In N Out meet, but got caught up with work.

I don't know why I keep looking at this thread.

It makes my engine bay look like a bathroom stall at a drug infested rave party.
