It's not always about functionality, looks matter too. At least to some of us.😉 Kinda like it's not always how fast you get from Point A to Point, but it's how you, look, feel and sound doing it.😁 Engine bay is look'n good! Save the Wave🙋🏼♂️
Chris its looking good..A Corvette have a SOUL you just given it more zoooom zooom your the MAN...
Looks great under that hood. The alternator spins to free, usually means the bearing are about done.
Future Video (how to replace alternator bearings) and save us 400-500 dollars.
Good job Chris! Looks AWESOME Bro! Thumbs up from me as usual... Stay safe... Rico
Awesome video but may I suggest: RUBBER HAMMER! 😂😂
Edit: Which paint do you recommend?
I admire your willingness to try things like this...thanks for sharing 👍🏻
I wish I still had that kind of motivation Chris. 🤣
I see the housing and I want to paint it black.
lol
So I’m guessing you did not take those 3 wires off you just masked it off and painted it?
Nice job Chris, 👏 👍 thanks
The alternators in my boat looked worse. Took apart. Cleaned and painted. Now they look new and work fine. I only replaced the bearings. They are 34 years old with 600 hours.
Powder coating would look awesome black over silver!
Hey Chris I enjoy all your videos keep up the great job
HI Chris,why you din't change the brushes, nice video.God Bless you.
Your engine compartment is looking awesome Chris. Great job as usual!
Hey man I really enjoy watching your videos. Keep it up.
Awesome, I also in a hurry so I applied engine paint to mine by a brush without removal. It looks surprisingly good. I am going to replace the alternator later anyway.
With a core exchange you can get a remanufactured 110A alternator for a C5 for
Ese motor se ve increíble!! As echo un excelente trabajo con el c5 thank’s chris 👍
Was there any trick to getting the case back on beside banging on it a little? Great Video!
Does the spray paint mess up the coils, that side you couldn’t take apart?
Awesome video Chris , I’m going to do this idea too , great idea and cheap , ya those are real expensive but you can rebuild these so easy and way cheap they have a kit I was told, i have a question if you don’t mind answering Chris , on our cars there’s a issue sometimes with battery acid getting on the ecm , bcm vacuum lines , etc under the battery compartment , do you have any suggestions on preventing acid from the battery getting on the electric,electronics under . or would you move the battery to the trunk.i don’t think you had this issue before looks like . Thanks
TE RECOMIENDO QUE LE COMPRES LA POLEA DEL ALTERNADOR Y EL POWER SON DE ALUMINIO Y NO SON CARAS Y SE MIRA MEJOR
Like I said in the past, I prefered to leave Corvette stock but this Car is special, what a beautiful Corvette.
Chriss you are a Savage!!
Nice and clean superrrrrrrrr
What paint did you use
BLACK
😂😂😂😂
Starter?
You went that far all ready should of just re Bilet it
It's an alternator not a starter,lol
Chris, take the alternator to Copperstate Auto Electric & have the rebuild your OEM alternator for rebuild. I think they charged me $140 2 years ago. I used the Tucson location but it was well worth it. These cars are way to finicky when it comes to voltage to trust a non OEM alternator. Look at their website. www.tucsonalternator.com
Appearances are important but if the alternator appears to be working I would leave it alone.
Rock auto
Great job! I did my alternator in red. I also did a Corvette alternator replacement tutorial a while back.

>strikes aluminum housing with steel hammer
>calls an alternator a starter
Typical Corvette driver. Better off getting advice from a Third Gen owner with a needle still hanging out of his arm.
Yeah....not a starter....
It will peal in 3 hours of driving. Talk about at a Fool.
Why would you paint, I powder coat or order with powder coating
Like I said, I’m not spending $600 until I need to.
