Picked up a Dayco Serpentine belt and a CS130D (I'm guessing) alternator wire connector. Just waiting till tomarrow to get rid of this migraine untill I start the swap. I know some people are interested about the AD244 swap and there is alot of info on the web about the swap.

But I'm gonna try and take pics of the swap and put a how to together. Only downside is it would only be helpful to the 7% of people that have a 1st gen on here. But then agian the alt brackets are pretty much the same so, who knows. Oh almost forgot also picked up some new center caps for my camaro wheels at the salvage yard when I got the alt connector. They are plain silver with a red bowtie outline in the center.

Trust me, if it wasn't needed I wouldn't bother. Like I said, there is alot of info online. But it's mainly one guys guideline copy and pasted on 100 diffrent websites. So I'll go into a lil more detail other then just saying what models came with them and that they are a larger case. No one has any real details hardly on the swap itself.

I just hope that it being a HO it doesn't hurt amps at idle and at least does the 100amp at idle like a standard one. It has a smaller pulley so we'll see. I'm gonna get to bed so I can get up earlier tomarrow than 2pm. LOL it's 5:16 am right now here.

Rear pads and rotors. The left rear caliper locked up last night so i did that too.

The only problem was the rusted out backing plate that was rubbing on the rotor. I ripped pretty much both sides off.

Today I was driving behind a Blazer from California. Haven't seen anyone from there before, let alone a Blazer!
