                Started tearing stuff apart last night - and had to toss these on to see what they'll look like.  Sssooooo much stuff to clean and replace in the bay. 😬

                        Might be time to step up your game to Super Clean and shop towels.

                          Simple green, scrub with a small brush, rinse with water, done. Much easier.

                                Don't really have a reason to?!?  At this point it's clean, replace, Powdercoat/plate, reassemble - and get it running!!!

                                    I'll have that bay looking pretty without pulling the engine.  😉

                                      Snap knocked out some powdercoating on the quick - so had to test fit.  Can't wait to get everything back from zinc coating and start reassembling.  Still need to de-bracket the PS of the bay - and clean.
