Sorry guys for the late update, was a crazy weekend.. Well back to the action

STAGE 1: Phase 3 'Front Drive Assembly & Accessories'

Beer of choice this week is Fischer Blonde, a blonde ale with a baright gold in color, this beer displays unique savour with subtle fruity accents. Beer is imported from France. Also has a pretty cool bottle top. Has a pretty good taste could be better but not bad with a good burger..

What we have to install today is a water pump with some AN fittings that I got from my good friend Stew, which also has a build thread going on with his LS1 S13 (check it out HERE), ARP Water pump bolts, Alternator, KRC tension pulley and a KRC drift power steering pump. Nothing but the best for my babe..

ARP Water Pump Bolts: $37.00

Alternator: $97.99

KRC idler tensioned is: $178.75

KRC Drift power steering pump: $460.57

KRC F-body pump bracket is: $68.75

Stew had a -16AN welded in for the thermostat, but I will be changing this to a -20AN..

Next is the KRC goods,,

http://i441.photobucket.com/albums/q...T_album/89.jpg

First up is the idler tension pulley.. KRC makes some nice products and would highly recommend them to any one.

http://i441.photobucket.com/albums/q...T_album/90.jpg

Mount up the bracket first and follow the instructions for torque specs.

http://i441.photobucket.com/albums/q...T_album/91.jpg

Already looks good.

http://i441.photobucket.com/albums/q...T_album/93.jpg

Then mount up the bracket for the pulley itself and again follow the KRC instructions.

http://i441.photobucket.com/albums/q...T_album/92.jpg

So pretty...

http://i441.photobucket.com/albums/q..._album/945.jpg

Then mount up the pulley itself. In this pic I have not fully installed the center bearing all the way, but you get the idea..

http://i441.photobucket.com/albums/q...T_album/94.jpg

Perfect

And the power steering pump itself too.

http://i441.photobucket.com/albums/q...T_album/98.jpg

Comes with all the fittings you need.

http://i441.photobucket.com/albums/q...T_album/99.jpg

Mount up the bracket first, and be sure to follow the instructions.

http://i441.photobucket.com/albums/q..._album/100.jpg

Then mount up the power steering pump to the bracket. Again follow instructions for torque specs..
