The only problem about replacing the broken part(s) with better stuff is the weaker link moves to something else and that will fail. It's just a domino effect.

Boost, because sometimes atmospheric pressure just isn't enough.

I finally spent some time in the garage today putting shit back together and sweating my ass off. Made good progress.




Excuse the tools and crap all over the floor.

I don't care for the yellow alternator, and the red manifolds look a lot better than the rusty pieces they were. I want to paint he alternator silver, but Ive never pulled the casing apart on one before.

Hopefully I can have it done by next month. I really need to get it done, even though Im not really doing it the way I really want to. My parts list so far is pushing $1k. New front propshaft is half of that though.
