yeah theres pics of some of the process on the previous page. Nick, who built zabeard's 5.4, is the one who rebuilt it for me.

 

makes me glad I never opened up my eaton 112. Those screws look pretty rough

 

what do you expect from a 13 year old part

 

True, I never really put an age to it. Suppose at that age you can just be happy its not trashed

 

yup all that matters are the internals which are all cleaned, replaceable parts have been replaced, case has been blasted, primed and sprayed.
Function > Form
it doesn't need a cute pink bow on the top lol

 

Truth, Although why not have both? find a local shop that can polish that beauty and let it shine

 

it would pit over time again...not really worth it lol its not going to be all black. the top fins will be polished sorta like this style

 

here

its just begun to "wrinkle". full wrinkle effect may take up to 24 hours according to VHT

 

not to bad, I like that look. I am sort of a nut for polishing aluminum and whatnot. Ive done all my turbos as well as wheels, transmissions, even a transfer case

 

I was until i got bare aluminum wheels. sucks to keep them clean but it looks really good when they're freshly polished.

 

Looks pretty good if you ask me.

 

it'll look cool when the fins are done. I probably wont have time till the weekend though.

 

It all depends on what you do under the hood also. That crinkle with the machined fins would be awesome if you do other stuff like that too.

 

If I drove around with no hood then I would justify doing it. I never have and never will "show off" my engine bay. Supercharged or not, its still a V6 lol

 

JD Traction bars and rear skid came in.

I got around to taking 5min to install the rear diff skid a few minutes ago. JD traction bars will go in tomorrow after work. Didn't know downey opened up his own company. His name is laser cut into the skid

 

 

Lol.

Luks gud.

 

Got my reverse LEDs in the mail today and put them in. Really bright!









also got around to installing my James Duff traction bars




i received a sample from BedRug as well. Im thinking about ordering one soon.

 

Now for the LOCKERS and Super Charger !

 

I don't need lockers but i should have the SC in once spring rolls around

 

You say that now, once the SC is in place and the power burns and full throttle take offs burns out the LS… then you will say, "I should have had a Locker” !

 

you notice a difference with the traction bars? Been thinking about getting a set.

 

With the price of my tires Ill definitely lay off the throttle during a take off haha.

 

Way smoother, barely any dipping of the front end when you brake. Rides way better I'm glad I got some

 

hmmm ill have to get some on my truck before winter.
