There isn't really a section for " Cleaning performance parts" So I hope I put this in the right place. Anyway, my blower seems to have lost that "luster" that it had back when it was brand new, and I wanted to know your all's tactics on cleaning yours. All of my other cars have had engine bays that were bombarded with plastic and i'd just blast it with some nice foamy tire shine and call it a day, but that stuff eats wheel clear, i'm sure it will make for an ugly eaton. Anyway, what do you guys use? Give me the play by play. I appreciate it

 

I first put it in the washer,
Then I put it in the dryer.

 

try aluminum or Mag polish.

 

I make her take a shower.

 

That's a terrible idea!











I use the dishwasher






Seriously, I don't know what to use. I know some guy have polished their blowers, but I don't know about what to use to clean the outside.

 

 

Wowww thanks for taking my thread to outer space guys. I have a sense of humor but I really wanted some serious answers. Thanks for your suggestion umrdyldo

 

god damnit i was gonna say make that bitch brush her teeth...but its not even as funny now cause you ruined it.

ummm try anything that cleans metal decently. like...soap and water.

 

get a powerball and some metal polish

 

the stuff i used on the valve cover is by mcgueirs I believe. Use one rag to apply and a second to wipe clean. You really scrub it and it will shine for sure.

 

Mustang GT's, Corvettes, Porsches, Cobras, etc...

have you ever used one of those?

your better off doing it by hand.

not to mention that powerball would prob rip up while trying to polish the rough casting on the blower

 

no i havent used one...but was contemplating getting one

 

honestly dont waste your money man, they really dont work

 

what would you recommend then for these with really bad pitting that is filled with fused brake dust because the prvious owner didnt wash the wheels enough

 

steel wool on the wheels with windex. then polish

have fun

blower, use carb cleaner and a rag

 

be careful with the steel wool

+++for the carb cleaner

 

let it cool.. then use simple green and some elbow greese

 

im sure quite a few cobras are sayin the same thing about their blowers.

 

not after they race me they aren't...

 

wtf is that torque? All i see is high 400's to the wheels and high 11's...which can be made on a termi with a pulley swap, a tune, cooling mods and exhaust...which the majority of them you find have.

 

there are bolt on cobra's making more power.

 

exactly, someone is way too cocky.

 

post torque converter calculation...when the engine is begining to wind up but the torque converter is barely moving...

I can't get enough rubber under the car to break into the 10s.
