I am aware of the resistance wire in the harness just thought it was redundant having two condensers .

I did a little today . Looks much better with the chassis finished to contrast the engine. Painted the fan pulley and PCV parts going to finish the breather tomorrow. Never saw ridges on a pulley before .
