sensor
 

So going with the pre-mix tank, I want to get a low level sensor on it. Any ideas on this?

We can utilize a low level sensor off of a water injection setup. LED light on dash indicating low level.

It would be extra $.

afgmoto, what kind of price increase or difference are we looking at if we want this option? Also, would it include all associated hardware to hook it up? i.e. sensor, led, some wire, relay, fuse and what ever else is potentially needed?

Still Looking for a level sensor that will work dimensionally. Expect an Additional $30 for a complete kit will all associated hardware.

Fabrication Update

All the plates have been cut and bent to shape. I started welding the tanks together yesterday and should be done with welding them by next weekend.

Can we get an update on everything please? :)

Also, for those of us who just prepaid, for the oil premix tank. What is the final price going to be?

Thanks.

can this fit an FC?

I dont know. But i do know it was designed to fit a rew engine. So if you have an rew engine, i would say yes. If not, then you would have to wait for the OP to answer that.

Update, okay first I want to let everyone know I accepted a job with BMW at the BMW Performance Test Center in Greenville, South Carolina. I will be leaving Oregon tomorrow.

I did my best, but I was not able to get all the tanks done. Once I get settled into South Carolina will commence fabrication of the tanks. I want to apologize for the inconvenience. I will give you guys a ETA on completion when I get back into the fabricating the tanks.

Adam

Can you provide us a rough ball park on this time frame? 1 month, 3 months, etc...

Ah man I'm jealous! Have fun.

No worries here. I'll be out of country until January anyway haha.

Good luck with the new job!

As soon as I get access to a TIG welder I will be roughly a month out from there. Working on finding a TIG welder, local powder coater and a place I can get silver brazing done.

Quick question, where does the hose from the filler neck go, right to the top? I was thinking about doing the Damian filler neck from Re-Speed with the -10 fitting, but I don't want to if it won't work with this can or if it's not worth it. Your thoughts Adam?

We need to meet up for dinner, Adam!!!

Its been over a month since the last update. I was not expecting this to take this long. Any news on finishing this product you are offering?

Alright guys, sorry this has taken so long. I really apologize for this. I will finally be able to order the welder I need to finish this project later this week. Once I get the welder I will focus all my spare time to get these tanks done. My estimate is I will be done with these tanks by middle of December.

Thank you all for being patient.

Adam

Sweet! I'm stoked!

Okay guys as of tomorrow I'm back into production of these tanks.

Greetings,

How goes the production since you started back up a few weeks ago. Can we get an update again please.

Thanks. :)

Id like to pick one up but i dont want to wait a decade

Sigh, I want to apologize, unfortunately my welder went into a fritz and it needs to get it fixed. I'm waiting for a reply from a Miller tech services rep on what needs to be fixed.

So at this point in time I'm on hold again on welding the remaining tanks until I can get it fixed. I'm really really sorry about this guys.

At this point in time I have three tanks that are completely welded up and ready to be put together as kits. So in the meantime while I try and get my welder fixed I will be finishing three catch tank kits ASAP. I will be working on the rear turbo side vent lines and remaining parts needed this weekend.

So at this point in time I need to know which three of the list below needs tanks NOW instead of later.

1. speedjunkie - Dep
2. RedR1 - Deposit Paid - Polished Catch Tank
3. Zhe
4. Scrubolio - Dep

The guys below I know are either not in a position that they need the tanks NOW in order to get their cars running OR need premix tanks which I do not have any done. Thanks for your patience guys! FierceAlien, I'm really sorry.

1. Astrokid - Paid in Full - Catch Tank - Raw Finish
2. Matt Hardwick - Xenocide0 - Deposit Paid - Pre - Mix Tank - Satin Black
3. FierceAlien - Deposit Paid - Premix tank - Satin Black
4. Jesse Frame - aka Prometheus - Paid in Full - Catch Tank - Satin Finish
5. Rob - Paid in full - Custom AN Fittings - Raw finish
6. aoc007 - Paid in Full - Catch Tank - Satin Black

I still have the old tank so I dont need the new one right away but I'd like to have it in the next couple months before the new track season starts.

Lol, in won't be a decade from now. If your serious I will be selling my extra tank early next year, mind you at full price. If you want it buy it.

Adam

I will either have this welder repaired or get another one within a 1/1.5 months so I will have the remaining tanks done late January/February.

Sounds good, I probably won't be on track again til after that, need some time to rebuild.

I'm not in the US right now, but I'll need to install it right when I get back, so if possible I'd like to have mine now.

Dep next to my name means I paid the deposit right? I'm pretty sure I did, but I don't remember for sure, I'd have to go back and look at my paypal history.

Thanks Adam!

:(

I know I'm really sorry, really really frustrated about this. Will be taking the welder to a local welding repair shop. It's either and SCR or a board, they will have to put a scope on the output to see what going on.

Yea im serious about getting one from you. I can wait for one in the spring the members before me deserve one first. Nice product by the way :biggthumpup:

Checking in. Can we can an update please?

yes please updates. did you fix the ol tig welder?

I went ahead and made the decision to make the rear vent line out of stainless. A bit more expensive, but I get a better product. So I picked up all the stainless laser cut pieces I had made yesterday and currently working on the right rear breather lines (bent and welded) today. I should have most of them done by the end of this weekend.

Come Tuesday I will be taking my welder to a different local repair shop that guarantees one week turnaround time for repairs. So come the 24th I will be back in business for welding the aluminum tanks.

Cool, I'll be coming back around that time and I'm gonna need it quick lol. Thanks for the update!

Alright RedR1 has taken a pass for a later unit and Scrubolio is MIA. And Zhe is out, so I will be getting the other two finished tanks to either the following people. So which one you guys need your catch tank now and who can wait another 3-4 weeks?

Jesse
aoc007

Also has anyone heard from Scrubolio?

I can wait and i will for sure pick one up.

More waiting.... :(

Kool-Aid!

Alright got an update from welding repair guy, he said it will be repaired middle of next week. Turned out to be two SCRs, very big Diodes.
