Message Hi - I'm back with more crazy stuff for you..

Here are a couple of sneak peeks of the cover nearly fitted:
Version 3

Not polished at the moment as more welding to do...
Version 3


As I mentioned I want to put my Aeromotive FPR and FF centrally mounted and the cam belt cover is going to home the FPR so I started to fabricate a bracket out of 50mm ally tube. Cutting it at 15 degrees so the FPR faces upwards slightly, I cut out an area to protect/cover the two water temp sensors and so tidy that area up a bit.

Mock-up looked like this:

Nice fit:
Version 3

Version 3/a>

OK so all positioned and trial fitted now time to weld this baby on...
I routed a 50mm slot 2mm deep to sit the bracket in so that I could get some meat on the join - we don't want this baby falling off!!

Version 3

Version 3

Done - not tidied up yet...

The plumbing plan v4.2!! :smilielol5:
Version 3

Also made some spikes that will be welded on in due course - like the engine bay is not hazardous enough!!!!:o11:
Version 3

Getting there - I still need to make a blank for the bracket visible under the FPR - and that will incorporate a cable support for the water temp connections.
Version 3

Thats it for now...
Version 3
Version 3

The Fuel Filter will also be mounted centrally - but that's another post ;-))

I know you guys will let me know your thoughts.
Thanks for looking.
