The wonders of a good motor scrub

I was just looking at some shots of my motor and saw this older one and said damn that was some dirty **** right there, just thought I would throw up the before and afters on it it speaks for its self the amount of difference it makes

and its even cleaner now I finished yanking the rest of the PS and A/C also the windshield wipers and all, only addition is threw in a MSD ignition

Oh yeah and replaced the bulkhead too

Wow...what a transition

My bay came out pretty damn good too, but I unfortunately didn't have the time to scrub it to that level!

Re: The wonders of a good motor scrub (ebelp)

used Simple Green Automotive and Turtle wax tire Foam. no pressure washer just thumb over end of hose powered washer, after I was done washing and scrubing everything I soaked the whole bay in a nice coat of tire foam then turned the motor on for about 15 minutes to bake it in to give it that nice "waxed" look

Re: The wonders of a good motor scrub (b00st)

Yeah distributor, fuse box, altenator, and battery but I just pulled my battery out while I washed it then just go back and do those part carefully

Re: The wonders of a good motor scrub (mugenDAxsi)

I had been in an accident had pushed the whole front in I pulled it all out but the bulkhead was still messed up, but since those pics I have actually pulled that out and replaced it with a brand new one
