I've dressed up my engine. here's some pics

[Tepot]

Hi guy's

I've dressed up my engine with chrome parts and blue spark plug wires on loom kits. It's not much but I like the way it turned out. I have a long way to go to get everything clean under that hood but I gotta start somewhere right?

so here's the before and after pics of my engine dress up. Let me know what you think.

COOL - Now with a few months of cleaning and polishing it will look even better.

Ain't nothin' sweeter than chrome !! ... and the wires/loom kit really sharpen it all up BIG TIME !! Definitely lookin' good !!

Is that rain water I see in the second (after) picture? Carefull... it might just melt all away. Looks great, now that you've started, it will never end, there will always be something to clean or change out for something prettier.

When you save the .jpg picture reduce the quality from 100% to 80 or 70%

Very nice job, Looks Great!

I bought a chrome cover for my Master Cylinder from Summit and it doesn't fit. Did yours fit? If so where did you get it.

Mine fit but the 2 chrome clamps to hold the cover did not fit. so I've used the original clamps on the chrome cover.

I baught mine at Canadian Tire. it a Mr. Gasket product.

Yes they are for sale. they are really good but I just like chrome. it's the only reason why i've changed them.

There is a guy that told me he wanted to buy them. he's my neigbords friend. i'll ask him tonight if he still want them. If not I'll sell them to you.

Slowly, but surely, it's coming along, Tepot! Another simple thing you can do (if you are so inclined and have a wire-wheel on a bench grinder) is to give your alternator and bracket a thorough go-over. And putting on some March Pulleys also can help!
