Or for those of us that can weld, here is a basic list in pic form of the materials that you need.
https://www.rx7club.com/attachment.p...1&d=1220771314 Drill presses and holesaws are great for cutting out circles in aluminum. They work for steel as well but they are loud and aggrevating. https://www.rx7club.com/attachment.p...1&d=1220771314 Two hole saws were used for this piece before I welded the litte tube on. https://www.rx7club.com/attachment.p...1&d=1220771314 And the basic outline https://www.rx7club.com/attachment.p...1&d=1220771314 |

The mounting bracket
https://www.rx7club.com/attachment.p...1&d=1220771578 The mounting bracket welded on and the rest of it finish welded https://www.rx7club.com/attachment.p...1&d=1220771578 Finished piece https://www.rx7club.com/attachment.p...1&d=1220771578 & finally mounted. i plan on changing out those 1/8 NPT -> -4AN fittings with some barbs and using a clear plastic tube as a sight-tube. This is really more of a crankcase vent/puke tank but it will work to keep the crankcase as atmosphere. https://www.rx7club.com/attachment.p...1&d=1220771578 |

Thank you
I think anyone who owns one of these cars should have at least one welder. My newest toy is my plasma cutter. So much fun, makes things so much faster and less aggrevating. Not to mention the cost of jig saw blades when trying to build something out of 14 Ga or thicker stainless, or anything with curves. I own. Spent a long time accruing. Many a side job to afford the more expensive ones. Bandsaw is the next big purchase. this has nothing too do with this post but did you make your VMIC and if so did you post it on the forum? |
thats too---TitaniumTT

There is no link, I didn't want someone ripping off my idea and finishing it before I did. I only posted an obscure picture or two, like this one
