Title: Polished Compressor
Post by: gracerace on July 08, 2022, 05:49:18 pm
If your going to have a detailed engine bay, might as well replace your leaking compressor with a show car polished one! I can't help myself!
24K miles on the Cat, and rolling awesome.
Cheers Chris

Cummins and their computer,cracked blocks, head, head gaskets, and valve issues.....ewww
All engines have issues, you just stick to the one you like.
A Foretravel with a Cat, was more money, and twice the warranty
There are still millions of 3126, C7 & C9 Cats in service to this day, all around the world.They all have HEUI pumps and injectors.
Dude, you have a motorhome, so you have a problem, you just don't know what it is yet.

I prefer to apply a positive spin: I live in a motorhome, I don't need a hobby.  That's why we have four antique vehicles and an interest in large format photography.

FWIW Vintage Air offers polished and chromed AC compressors.  I just want cold air.

Chris, looks great and adds smile-a-mile to your ownership - especially after rebuilding your own engine.

I know right. Our heard keeps me busy, just doing oil changes.Picture doesn't include, Harleys, Jeep, Dually, new Dart driver, snow plow, snow blower, and lawn mower.
Wouldn't have it any other way!
I want to wear out, not rot out!
