Alodine is for aluminum and mag. It has chromium in it or something to help fight corrsion. Used on aircraft stuff.

 

I’m ready for break-in tomorrow after we get some hose from the UPS truck.

Waiting on paint to dry on the fan shroud today. So I assembled the brand new cb performance dual 40 Weber carb kit. Alodine coating on the manifolds linkage and air filters.

12volt 105mm generator brand new from Bosch of Mexico. Dressed up to look like old 6 volt.

Stacking the engine. I got some zinc plated parts back from the plating shop. Old Bosch logo coil bracket, on a brand new Bosch blue coil. VW logos on the trimmed pulley and cylinder tins.

I tried buffing some dirt out of the fan shroud and went a little too far. Cut into the sealer, so I sanded and repainted last night. Doh!

Fit heater boxes to the wolfsburg tube cradle and welded the bends.

Yeah, the rear main bearing was loose in the case. Way bad on the thrust surface…like .080”
