It's looking great. That dry chem really got into everything.

Interesting that it has an exhaust balance tube right at the manifolds. Is that original ?
Engine compartment looks like a different vehicle.... outstanding, but that is the way of the Corvette Whisperer...

Yes it is. The solid lifter engines received that.

Some days, the idea of parking my brain on the side and doing some mind numbing work is just what the doctor ordered. Cleaning parts is the order of the day.......


I did get my fuel pump back from AG Rebuilders. They have great turn around times!



Now, it's time to jump into the starter......

Yep, it's time to clean that up, replace the brushes and maybe bushings and it's good as new.
Reminds me, I have a front brake caliper de-rusting in Evaporust for about 3 weeks now... Hope there's something left of it...

It would be therapy for me too, until I tried to start the car and nothing worked.
