Ok everything on the tank is finished
Level sensor fitted this will switch on a small red light on the dash once the level is below halfway Tank holds 3.5ltrs :) Here are the photos http://i527.photobucket.com/albums/c...542C1B891D.jpg http://i527.photobucket.com/albums/c...542560934F.jpg http://i527.photobucket.com/albums/c...5432F13C8D.jpg http://i527.photobucket.com/albums/c...544050F853.jpg http://i527.photobucket.com/albums/c...5438E77E00.jpg |
Thats a mighty fine system you got there:)
|
Why thank you kind sir :) MWI systems you know
|
For your 6mm nylon tubing here is a trick to make it more PRO (lol)
Put a piece of electrical wire up it (to stop tube from collapsing) and heat it up gently with a heat gun and BEND it to suit your application :) it then stays in position perfectly and looks sick as fuck :) I have mine routed in all kinds of places, and in hot environments I sleeve it as well. Little tricks you learn over 20 years ;) |
Would that trick still work for 8mm hose?
|
I will try it out tomorrow Peter and report back thanks for that :)

It took me a few try's as I kept getting the cable stuck in the tube, but then I found if I lubed the wire and moved it while heating I could bend away |
Ps I just opened a new forum/blog on my site check it out guys

Little update
Have put my order in for a nice large intercooler but she is going to take around 30-40 days :( after that the car should be done Tonight I got to work making up a shot blasting cabinet Then I stuck the red upper and lower cosmo manifolds in there http://i527.photobucket.com/albums/c...psabfc9797.jpg http://i527.photobucket.com/albums/c...psfccb2f4d.jpg http://i527.photobucket.com/albums/c...psd328b528.jpg http://i527.photobucket.com/albums/c...ps4375b66c.jpg Then a quick clean up of the logo :) http://i527.photobucket.com/albums/c...ps25c3749b.jpg http://i527.photobucket.com/albums/c...psb15fbe81.jpg This has to be the best tool I've made/bought no more sending stuff out to be cleaned. I'm going to keep the manifold this way now as it matches my turbo |
Looks good :icon_tup:
You might want to clear coat the manifolds, as they can oxidize over time. |
Few more shots of a quick mock up of the intake system, I will be removing this lot again to apply the heat treatment sheets to the lim and under the upper

Quick update nothing big
I have the intercooler sized up and ready to be made now so soon as that's ready I should be back on the road I am still on the look out for a GM 3bar map sensor Anyways after cleaning up the intake I had to redo all the heat shielding so that's what I've been upto this afternoon Enjoy http://i527.photobucket.com/albums/c...ps3f1ea216.jpg http://i527.photobucket.com/albums/c...psf579f5e9.jpg http://i527.photobucket.com/albums/c...pscdd3204c.jpg This stuff is great developed for Porsche I'm using it here to stop as much heat entering the loom and fuel lines http://i527.photobucket.com/albums/c...ps42503c86.jpg http://i527.photobucket.com/albums/c...psa65fd356.jpg Then onto using the speed shield on the water lines and fuel lines http://i527.photobucket.com/albums/c...ps9e110ab5.jpg Mock up of the new intercooler http://i527.photobucket.com/albums/c...psc733fe0b.jpg http://i527.photobucket.com/albums/c...ps4eb35601.jpg http://i527.photobucket.com/albums/c...ps16fac263.jpg http://i527.photobucket.com/albums/c...ps92d455ae.jpg http://i527.photobucket.com/albums/c...psb7ba71ed.jpg Vulcan heat shield beanie for the turbo I will also be boxing in the manifold with this I'm hoping with a duct to the front or underside of the front flat floor http://i527.photobucket.com/albums/c...ps644856ef.jpg http://i527.photobucket.com/albums/c...ps3c1613f3.jpg That's me |
