well yesterday i spent a few hours detailing my engine bay so i figure id throw up some before and after pics for you guys. that aircraft stripper shit that everyone talks about works like a charm but is but kinda freaked me out cause it was actually sizzling quietly like a pan of bacon, no shit. also gives you nice little chemical burns (dont ask how i know)

i think it came out pretty good and im not ashamed to pop my hood anymore because it doesnt look like i just pulled it out of junkyard

i have a header for it but didnt have time yesturday to go over it with never dull and put it on

 

it sure did help out alot...looks much cleaner

 

whatr did you do to that filter it looks al fawked yp ?

 

just bought it the whole intake off my buddy for $10 so i havent cleaned it yet, you shoulda seen my old one...........

it isnt as bad as it looks in the pics still looks pink in person

 

good deal. Did you repaint the valve cover?

 

When you say aircraft cleaner, what exactily do you meen? Are you talking about an alkaline cleaner? Because that is what we use at boeing...

 

a header would drastically improve the appearance of your engine bay, as well as provide a small amount of power

...or a nice turbo manifold

 

yea, that shit works good, i think im gunna have to pick some up for my new civic i just bought, the enging bay is hurtin!

 

doesn't aircraft stripper strip off paint? you used it to clean your engine bay? or when you repainted the valve cover?
haha

 

yea i painted the valve covoer and strut bar

the aircraft stripper was called "stripease aircraft stripper" got it at the local industrial paint shop

i have header just not on yet
