bought a load of 3" bends yesterday to make the exhaust from

David

 

*cough*

 

another pointless fix an error post

 

Ok steven bought the bends and I owe him some money.. pedantic ****.

 

David,

Could I suggest you might also want to use some straight bits for less back pressure, also might save some weight.

Andrew...

 

ROTFLMAO

 

 

Big thanks to chiark, p20spd and all for helping last night despite me being in a foul mood...

Thanks to nick for taking me to pick up the propshaft and the wastegate pipe work from tony law exhausts.

Must go do something once I wake up..

Fuel rails are scrap as the ends I welded on are the wrong size..

David

 

FFS... sorry to hear that mate..

Simon

 

I'd have been a little annoyed at what happened, but David seems to be in good spirits . It's either change the hoses or change the rails, and the hoses are too beautiful to contemplate messing with

 

Been and collected a set of oxy & Acetylene bottles, regs, and torch... going to try and move the exhuast over

Steven has moved the fan for me.. just need to alter the wiring so it reaches.. or use fan 2 connector if it will reach and then swap the wiring at the ecu end to switch the other relay..

Went to maplin today.. 40A automotive relays are circa £1

Did they have any?? NO.. Not until Sept..

Did they have the £4 ones?? Yes. Doh... Bend over mr wallis... feeling a bit sore after that purchase..

David

 

Maplins suck

 

"""but David seems to be in good spirits """

would that be soaked.. in good spirits

Andy

woiuld explain why he's so cheery

 

Dont any local motor factors have relays??? A local scrap yard...or steal them from someones car while they are arent looking

Or Vehicle wiring products carry them.

 

JD may have been the good spirit, better than the spirit he was in when he threw the thottle body across the garage

 

Hope that was the old TB

Do you have any spare rails David?? are they Phase one rails if not??

Rob

 

no I threw the new one

yes I did get the JD out and start drinking it... It helped..

have bought relays now.. can afford to be pissing about unlike engine suppliers

David

 

A few developments tonight

 

Tell us or show us then!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Rob

 

Wallis you can't leave it like that....

 

Bet he has gone to bed

Gonna leave the night shift people of scoobynet waitin

I think he has got his engine started

Rob

 

nope..

 

More of the Ole' Jack D needed.....

Isn't that good stuff for use as octane booster???


Poor old ( well, the new 5 litre Mustang one ) throttle body, hope it's still round... and still fits the cute front entry manifold hole...

Just as you were getting on top and back to schedule for TOTB2 too


We await developments

<cracks a can and sits back to wait...>

 

Hmm turned corner and no errors... !

 

Can you machine down the end fittings tho ..... or grind out the weld?
