The other steps 2 & 3will be much of the same scenario.



Not at work I dont, sorry. I can take some on Thursday though and post them up. If I remember.
cool. I'll remind you

Of course I will be sending all the machining work to be done by a competent machining shop.
Please share when you start fab work!

Hey mARC, well to be completely honest its from working in the mining industry. I can MIG weld pretty good, we have our own weld testers up here on site and all in all my welds are pretty good.

Over the last 3 months I have been learning the braising / Tig method of welding due to its good looks and the strength it has.

I will be fabricating my own up-pipe and dump pipe on this rotated set up inclusive on the EWG. I cant do consistent Tig yet but I am improving each lunch break I keep practicing.

I obviously have no code in welding , however it will be good enough for what I want to do, as it is not structural.

Just the side of the strut. On the drivers side I had 2 spare threaded holes, just used one of those.

Hey guys,

Got my first delivery today for the major parts for the engine build.

Pauter rods - Very solid

14mm head studs - These look really strong

New OEM water pump

Hope fully the remaining parts will be here in the next 3 weeks.
