hi,
on a recent wheeling trip, it seems the piece holding my battery down came off and allowed my battery to bounce around my engine bay for a bit. the battery rubbed up against a pulley and it wore a hole in the battery causing acid to leak in the bay itself. i noticed that the engine temp was going way higher then it normally goes so i went home. the next day i went to my garage and noticed the corroded concrete and also saw my radiator and over-flow reservoir were both empty. ill attach some pictures so you can see what was damaged from the acid.

i need help trying to figure out what needs to be replaced mostly, as i am not so good with engines :crybaby:

Hard to tell what you are going to need to replace/repair but you need to netralize that acid ASAP with some baking soda!!
