There aren’t any, I sent it to the booster exchange for rebuild.

I am going to send mine to them this week. Thanks!

Looking towards putting the hood back on and decided that now would be the best time to scrub it clean so here are a couple of before pics.
I’m hoping I’ll be happy enough with the results that I won’t need to do any painting on it but we’ll see….

Well Matt I hope it doesn't need paint since if it does you'll have to wait until June for it to be warm enough.

Hogwash desert dweller! It’s plenty warm in my finishing room!

I don't have a Finishing room but I do have a giant solar heat lamp that's on almost every day!

Sometimes all it takes is a little elbow grease and later some ibuprofen…

After.

Before.

I also stripped and painted the air cleaner.

And yes I did sandblast and paint the hood insulation pad clips.

Ready to go back on!
