I cleaned and painted the alternator and p/s pump

Also the p/s brackets and some misc pieces

Heres the exhaust manifold gasket I purchased

Part number for exhaust manifold gasket

Before you install the exhaust manifold make sure to grab some anti-seize and put a little bit on the tip of every thread

As you screw on the bolt the anti-seize will spread with the bolt if that makes any sense lol

Finally torque all the bolts to factory spec 27-35 ft lbs, I kept on tightening in a criss cross fashion 1/2 a turn until it was all tighten within spec. Tools needed 3/8 rachet/extension 14mm socket and a 14mm swivel socket "for two of the bolts" I used a 1/2 torque wrench with a 1/2 to 3/8 adaptor to tighten the bolts down.

I was curious if I was really off on the intake side since I didnt torque that side. long story short I was wayyy off so I pretty much went to the intake side and tightened everything down to factory spec. IACV 6.2-8 ft lbs, intake collector and manifold 13-15 ft lbs, rail cap 2.2-2.8 ft lbs, fuel rail 15-20 ft lbs. Better do it right the first time

Bolt on some misc brackets..

I caught an error this ground is suppose to be to the top right were there is no bolt in the picture not like it really matters, but I like to keep it oem yaaa digg

I threw on my alternator and tightened it

Heres a pic on how the alternator tesioner should hook up like

And a picture of the alternator brackets

Bolted back the brackets to the p/s pump

Cleaned and painted some turbo stuff. Yaaaaa

And that pretty much ends it for today Sorry so far its been boring stuff for the most part, but pretty soon I promise you will start to see this car transform from rags to riches :P
