And also finsh cut and polish on the engine bay(OMG i didn't think it was that dirty intill i wiped a rag with the cut and the rag just went black with a blue strip down the middle of the engine bay lol

Gates Racing for the blue radiator hoses.
CPC make a chrome overflow bottle cap - it's the standard part number with a C added to the end. VHT are probably the best for high temeperature automotive paint. |

I've painted exhaust heat shields with VHT and found the paint stayed on fine. Make sure you clean it properly before applying.
Gates also do do Racing belts - not sure if they make them for the Falcoons though as tehy definately don't make one to run my supercharger. |

OUCH how much did repco slap ya for the hoses??? never liked repco there a rip off of a joint supercheap sells some of the same stuff for s**t load cheaper. I normally go to coventrys for all my gear there cheaper and they look after me but they do lack on the performance gear and dress up gear side of things.

i think it was about $40 + for the belt
$60 + for the pair of hoses ..$5+each clamp.. i bought a pile of stuff at the same time,so im not 100%on the $..but im close.lol. repco was cheaper than coventry ,most other stores didnt have the blu gates stuff.. but i have noticed repco can be $5 - $10 more than some auto stores . on some item,,but then cheaper on others ,it pays to shop around. a lot of stores would get the race stuff in ,but cost was more .. dave ..
