escortwags Posted April 21, 2009 Author Share Posted April 21, 2009 well heres my fuel rail action ive just purchsed just pondering wether or not i need to bother with the primary rail now or just block it off and the plate feeds into each runner top half of manifold sandwhiches between the two, only raises the lot 20mm or so just have to go to bolt man on saturday and get some longer cap screws to bolt it all together thinking of powder coating the intake runners but polishing that plate inbetween to buzz people out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

escortwags Posted June 23, 2009 Author Share Posted June 23, 2009 man ive been a useless prick keeping this thing updated ok so on the weekend we finally got round to welding the boot up thanks to me bro Marcus his welder and a few beers being drunken turned out pretty mint, took a photo before the etch primer went on Also got the manifold rewelded and moved further out from the strut, and got me a nos starter motor for cheeeap, pics to follow will hopefully get the straps pressed up for the drop tank this week *fingers crossed* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
escortwags Posted June 30, 2009 Author Share Posted June 30, 2009 allrighty got motivated over the last few days, etched primed the boot and underneath and then sealed all the joins with silicone so after that decided to go get some stainless flat bar to bend up, once i got it home discovered there was no way in hell i was going to get 90' bends out of it without mashing the living shit out of it, so off to the steel benders it went. And the end prodcut was these super good quality and followed my measurements to the t Didnt want a rattley tank so covered them all in a good old camping foam mattress, managed to get a grey colour so it doesnt look so gay so once they were glued down and slid over the tank (a nice tight fit) it was time to stick her in the whole..which the tank didnt agree with as the foam added a tiny bit to much to the width...buuuuut that was nothing a grinder and a few wacks couldnt sort out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
escortwags Posted June 30, 2009 Author Share Posted June 30, 2009 and what do ya know it was a perfect fit!!! TADAAA and the view from underneath Just have to go to bolt man and get 8 big as hex screws, the plan is to have one going all the way threw both brackets with two nuts on it one tightning the bottom and the other holding the top in place...(explained that real gay pics will show what i mean) decided to dummy up everything else in place looks like a P lab now hahaha And thats it for now, purchased me the gearbox rubber mount so i can finally make the bracket for that this weekend, and got me a cut off saw so next pay day should see a whole heap of exhaust pipe and dynamat so i can finish off the boot + carpet Cheers for looking Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
