I dropped off the radiator at Hay's. It should be ready by the end of the week. $90, not bad. Unfortunately, Matt over there said he wouldn't be able to practically move the upper mounting points down two inches for me, so I'll have to fab up a bracket myself.

Anybody know of an alternator rebuilder who can hop up my stock unit? I mean someone local.

I ordered a tap for the bolt hole on the front, a 14x1.5 from Grainger. By the time I actually get this bolt out, I'll be lucky if there's any threads left to straighten out.

Due to the very limited supply of left-hand drill bits around here, I ordered a set. A set of five was cheaper than buying 2-3 locally.

My other parts should be here on Thursday, so slow-going as it is, I should end up with a pretty solid set-up when I'm done.
