haha. that looks like a cable from the starter, or the one that screws to the block behind the power steering pump.

Yea that's at lowery park zoo boat ramp. Yea I have a new evaporate and condenser already bought, and a set of 134a o-rings to replace all of them. And my girlfriends uncle works on car AC, and will charge my system for me.

Hey Im thinking about polishing my compressor housing, but is that a ceramic coating on the exhaust housing or polished?

Another good day at work ( I wish I did this for a living), got the pistons and rods installed today. The first two where the worst being my first time installing them, but after I got the hang of it the last four took as long as the first four lol. Before installing those I de-burred (I guess...
