I did a little bit of cleaning under the hood today.
Took the wiper motor cover off and vacuumed out the leaves and washed inside there then put the cover back on.
Going after hand polishing the AC lines a bit, just to shine them up.
Meguiars Hot Rims Mag & Aluminum Polish works pretty good.
Got some more cleaning to do under there, toothbrush time on the wiring harness covers is up next, can't just wipe them down gotta get into them.
Still got the radiator cover and header plate in polished stainless to go on, had it for quite awhile now, been waiting on the supercharger install before I install it tho.
Still sealed in the blue protective plastic wrap.
Gonna order up a new ZZPerformance Downpipie to match up to the Bad Mab Header I recently bought, and some extension harnesses for the supercharger install, less hackin into the harnesses with them, maybe today if my check gets here. Damn Lawyers.

Picked up a couple of stone chips one even put a small dent in the roof like hail would.
Sad part I was Intentionally staying wzy behind three 2 cars in front of me
then all of a sudden it sounded like a sludge hammer hit my roof.
May look into painters dent repair just to get tje dimples out an use touch up on the rest or bite the bullet and pay my deductible on insurance and watch my rates rise.
If I did not know any better I would say someone dropped something off a bridge But I was not near one.
maybe the sky is falling.

yes it is a chrome strip, 08 banshee says its after market, haven't decided what is staying and what is going, that grill was very shinny so I put the hood part of my bra on toned it down a bit.
The SS short bus is relaxing in the climate controlled garage, I think it looked happy, that the panel is taking over the heavy lifting. It will come out for play time.

Took Morticia to the bank, then to the touchless car wash, for a quicky, then stopped and got a Dunkin Donuts Coffee, drove home opened the hood to do some more cleaning, and the dark clouds rolled in, now raining damn it.
So the wash lasted all of about an Hour.
Was not supposed to rain today, wanted to clean her up a bit and hit Dukes tonite, guess I will sit in the garage working on the blower, engine mount, and trans mounts instead.
Was offered first dibs on a Built 2.4 Head this morning. And some other parts from a Supercharged HHR Build.
It has ZZP cams, ZZP springs, ZZP retainers, new valve seals installed, ported head, arp stud kit. Fully assembled and ready to bolt on.
I think I am gonna buy it, should be a Nice addition to the supercharger I am installing here hopefully soon.
Cleaned up the turbo tech racing parts I bought in the classifieds here , degreased them and thinking of Painting them, Purple of course.
