I thought that I remember Jeg's having those fittings. They don't list everything that they have on their site or in their catalogs. It might be well worth a phone call to one of their reps and they can guide you to a part #...look at it online and see if that is what you are needing. If not, call Russ at Power and Rubber in Alabaster, AL (tell him Todd @ No Limit told you to call) and see if he can help. You may even have to send him a sketch but he will do everything he can to help find the fittings you need, then he can ship them to you. He can be reached at 205-210-2101.

Hope that helps a brotha out.

I'll shoot a PM over the next few days. I have compny from out of town, plus the car isn't even here yet...still in Alabama.

yea im probably going to drop the drivetrain in, fit the kit and drop off everything at once

and now that i was thinking about it, i need some advice and a price on a custom battery tray..more talk in the PM

Why not just bend the aluminum into 2 a U shape? Meaning 2 walls and a floor, then weld up the two other walls, and bolt down the top?

[_] = this shape with little sections on the top... then you can have the top be riveted or bolted, and removable like in some fuel cells if you want to redo something, w/o the risk of cutting it back open.

They had some but I think they may end up being too tall, I ordered one to see what it's all about but I will DEFINATELY call Russ tomorrow, thanks for that :icon_tup: and yes, it definately helps a brotha out.

I'll be looking forward to the PM Todd, thanks again.

Definately, plus I know of a few people that sell them, then it's a matter of welding or bolting something in.

Then you're talking about sealing a surface that if stretched out would be over 9' long. Thats alot fo gasket material, potential for leaks etc etc, not to mention it would need to be thru-bolted so you'd have to stud it which means 9' more of welding.

Once I get all the measurements figured out and start building the thing, there won't be a need to ever go back into the tank. If the Bosch pump fits, the Denso certianly will. Thats about the only thing I would ever change, except I MIGHT have to go to a Wema sender as opposed to the stocker, which blows, becuase the stocker is the best sender I have ever used and I spent $87 on one less than a year ago.:banghead: Oh well, Alex will get some good use out of it I suppose.... no he won't, he's using an S5 dash, and I believe the resistance is different... regardless, I think the fuel cells that you are referring to anyway house an internal bladder and the top is just that, a top for a cell where no fuel is ever in contact with it.

I drew up a pic of it, I'll snap a pic of the pic and post it up tomorrow.... err later today.

Alright, time for an update and because of the timing, they'll be coming ALOT more frequently.

I've got a few leads on the hardware that I need for the traction control, and I went and picked up the TCMux from my MoTeC dealer. Tomorrow I'm ordering the DMC-D's that I'll need to go from the Mag signal that the factory sensors puts out to the Hall Effect signal that the MoTeC needs to see. Also got some 20ga shielded Tefzel wire on order and I finally broke down and bought the $320 crimper that they need, and I figure while I'm at it I upgraded my other crimpers as well because we're gonna offer some sick wiring solutions :D

Also managed to get the rest of the body stripped and last night we finally got her up on the rotisserie.

Already proped her to the side fo I can start the cleaning.

When I did start cleaning, I found that I opened up a can of fricken worms! I started with a wire brush and this was somewhat solid and not all the way through yet. Found a few of them actually, not pleased at all.

This is why we do NOT JACK FROM THE FUCKING PINCH WELDS!!!! The one on the other side is worse, but it was too high for me to get a pic

Don't know what caused the paint to fail here, but at least it's an easy fix

Also managed to get the tranny tunnel trimmed before I dropped the tranny off with Dave to get the thing cryo'ed and resynced.... this tranny is gonna kick ass.

Few more shots of the insanity.

I gotta get this thing repaired and undercoated so I can get this girl the right side up. This is fucked up, just so unatural but man oh man is she easy to work on now

Fuel Cell update - Got all the material bent up that I need and picked it all up. All I'm waiting on are the MilSpec connectors and the 7" Diameter tube that I had to order. When all is said and done it'll be a 17 gallon fuel tank with a built in 5 quart surge tank. Also got a new mount for the Bosch pump and I have a way to wire and plumb it that will hopefully make the thing MUCH more quite. Ludwig told me that he's running one in the tank and all you hear is a little hmmmmmm, I can live with that so I'm glad I didn't sell it like I was originally going to do. I'll get some pics of that progress when I get pissed off at all the holes in my undercarriage :smilielol5:

You sound like a 50yo woman!
Even my new car I thought was rust free has a small hole, and the pinch welds all fucked up :( fucking people are retarded.

People are fucking retarded. All four corners.... SHAME!!! I'll post pics of all the rot and the repairs. I've got some cool ideas for jack points.

dude...thats crazy!!!

Holy crap! I can't believe that's the same car :lol:. How big is the pile o' parts after it's all stripped like that?

Yeah it is. FD will be in that same position in a few months too :D

It's insane. I've got all the body parts out in Le Annex part duex (doors, fenders, bumers, fenders, hood, rear glass) the entire interior took up a decent size spare bedroom, the electronics are in a draw in my closet, and all the mechanical/underhood parts are in the basement. Took up 3 big selves, a desk, and a good bit of floor space.

I still need to strip out the harnesses. Sadly though I think it'll have to happen before I start the welding. Would suck to burn a harness that way. Luckily though as soon as the underside is done, the harness work is next, then the interior gets Lizard Skinned.

I really, really hate you :)


My undercoating takes SOOO much longer since I'm on my back, lol! I got sidetracked into another small project on my FC so the rest of my undercoating is being held off a bit for now, but should resume shortly.

You should be able to knock out the herculiner in a day no problem with that setup... although, your undercarriage appears in worse shape then mine... I only needed minor repairs thus far... good luck man...

Knocking out the liner with the car like that will take no time at all. It's the repairs that are going to screw me. I've got four areas that I would consider in need of major repair, and who knows how many smaller areas. I'm going to run out of gas for sure.

The real shitty part, and here's murphy for you. When the car was on jackstands i was thinking to myself, 'fuck it, I'll wait till she's back on stands before I strip the wiring harnesses out, I'm not doing any welding where the harness's are near' :wallbash: Now I need to flip her again, prop her upright and strip the harnesses with the car much higher than where I would want her to be. Oh well, lesson learned......... again.

What's your side project?
