[QUOTE=ryanroo;7189932]Thanks! im not sure the mental fatigue of running a 4-40 tap is worth it... haha literally the diameter of a toothpick.
I have a perfectly ruined aftermarket Holley metering block with a broken tap stuck in it sitting at the house right now:lol: |
Re: 72 k20 project
Once again proof that it dosent matter how big the shop is, it's what rolls out the door in the end that matters. Looking good !

been sinking some hours in this little bit of fun... http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l8...psyiofz7hs.jpg http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l8...psqkp99yft.jpg http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l8...psvkg98kmz.jpg http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l8...ps6y4cloaj.jpg still deciding on what to do to the end. but, barring the final trim, this is what itll be. the wheel will always be sooty, bedside too im sure. such it is. i still dig the dual exit in front of the tire look. not to mention, really no other option. http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l8...psc1yhpq6u.jpg |
Re: 72 k20 project
What do you think your egt's will be at the 90 over the frame will that over heat the wood? But still looks sharp!!

I'm not actually worried about the heat. It has over two inches of clear space before the wood. The exhaust temp will be relatively cool by the time it gets to the kick up and there is a fair amount of air moving over it going down the road. Time will tell if I am wrong though. |

Re: 72 k20 project
Nice work as usual. Are you going to angle cut or keep it square? It's gonna look good either way. :metal: :metal:

Re: 72 k20 project
Pure awsomeness, I found you build on pirate but it is no where as detailed. Just amazing.

right now i am leaning towards just making a square cut on each staggered so they both stick out the same amount. we'll see i guess. this is one of those things that changes in my head a lot. Quote:
so. i ordered this the other day. http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l8...psg5gl6xw6.jpg had to bolt it in. in my defense, i measured this before i built stuff, so i knew the starter would fit. however, that was a long time before i made the fuel lines and had since spaced it off. this is the oem position for the 2nd gen dodge flywheel housing. http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l8...pspnyo8emp.jpg in the truck http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l8...ps5xmxebhx.jpg its crammed into the fuel lines and brake line. the clamp for the lines is toast. the solution mill some holes, http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l8...psddhusxah.jpg turn some bungs http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l8...psov9gxptw.jpg weld http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l8...psvbukaiek.jpg and the new position http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l8...psgbo06uze.jpg http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l8...psioem7l87.jpg the return line will need one additional offset. but nothing else will be affected negatively. it tucks the starter motor nicely up and out of the way. i may need to gently persuade the dipstick tube but i haven't checked that. http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l8...psmou8rdyn.jpg |

I like the line clamps too. I'm pretty jealous that you get to use your shop for personal use. I work in a machine shop inside a fab shop and can't do that. It's like being a diabetic cake baker.

Re: 72 k20 project
I do a lot of it on the bosses generosity. Having the knowledge and know how but not being able to apply it for yourself would be a bit of a pain. I think my boss values the fact that I can operate everything at the shop with productive capacity, but since I don't always do it, off the clock practice is good for the shop too. Either way I'm lucky I get to play with the toys. Word about the ol water cooler is, a big five axis milling center is on its way to our corner of the world. We'll be the only machine that isn't black in four hundred miles with the capacity it has. I don't hold any hopes of getting the keys to that play house, but I can design and have the shop cut it. This might make life hard... Haha. Now that I think of it, it should be able to cut wheels...
