Not really keeping this up to date of late. Mainly because what Ive been doing is all fairly small boring stuff.
So whats been happening?
Well the brake lines are all run in. Decided to try PTFE lines for the first time. Hope that wasn’t a mistake.
Electrics are run out to the back, though I’ll need to run in some additional cables as I want to be able to switch the pumps.
Talking of the pumps they are stone chipped and fitted but there coming off tomorrow as I need to drop them so the inputs line up with the output of the gas tank.
Gas tank wise I had to get a new boss welded to the output as the thread was damaged, another POL POS! That gave me the opportunity to add a 2nd so each pump has a dedicated supply.
Had to remove the steering column so I could remove the stainless shaft because it was rusted to hell – yet another POL POS!
New chrome 7” booster fitted, though Im waiting on an adaptor coming to allow me to use the same master cylinder.
Bought a shot blast cabinet – that’s nice. Handy cleaning up the steering shaft (I hate POL).
Still planning on getting the engine fired up by the end of the summer but lest say that’s 1st October. Fingers crossed.
