Mmm..... Anodized.
old but most of the stuff gets Canodized...
The wheels are at the anodizer hope to see them soon
The wiring is done, most of it tested with the Motec ECU... so far so good, been moving the program from the M4 to the M84. The M4 is DOS based, the M84 is windows based.... and of course it is impossible to just say convert file... since windows has not had DOS imbedded since XP. I am keeping the XP computer alive but it can't do much else since it is not supported. So it is slow going... pull up a screen on the old, find where the info goes on the new... fill out the tables manually....
Then I figured I'd better check to see if any of the piston and head ended up processing through the turbo... after removing and destroying about $100 worth of ceramic wrap, it appears the turbo is just fine... no metal found in the exhaust manifold, the turbine or the pipe. I did find quite a bit in the oil pan while I was rebuilding. Checked the manifold for cracks and leaks, looked good.
Putting it back together, may need to find or buy more wrap.... I should have some, last time I bought several rolls.
