akyakapotter Posted February 12, 2015 Author Posted February 12, 2015 Another piece to the puzzle arrived yesterday tuning devlopments first prototype fuel rail from a few years ago. The long braided line will be replaced as my fuel pressure regulator is in a different place. Quote
wickedep Posted February 13, 2015 Posted February 13, 2015 nice mate, i have the same fuel rail on my race car. although mines gold anodized!! Quote
akyakapotter Posted February 13, 2015 Author Posted February 13, 2015 (edited) nice mate, i have the same fuel rail on my race car. although mines gold anodized!!I do like it may polish it right up.Ordered up a load of an fittings and braided line to make new lines from my fuel pressure regulator to the new fuel rail. Im going to attempt to make an an6 oil feed. Will see how that goes would love to make one for the return but would be a pain in the ass to do. Edited February 13, 2015 by akyakapotter Quote
akyakapotter Posted February 20, 2015 Author Posted February 20, 2015 (edited) Decided to get some tools today to make my like easier. Decided to replace my Cambelt tensioner and idler pully today was by far the easiest cam belt I've ever done.Did make one boo boo when taking the pully off wound the bolts from the pully remover in to far and bent the Cambelt guard type thing will have to get my hammer out and straighten it out Edited February 20, 2015 by akyakapotter Quote

akyakapotter Posted February 21, 2015 Author Posted February 21, 2015 looking good feller nice to see it coming along nicelyThank bud going to fit the flywheel and clutch kit today aswell I think and possibly shorten my catch tank lines. Quote
akyakapotter Posted February 21, 2015 Author Posted February 21, 2015 Investigated the weep of oil at the rear of the forged engine turns out its the sump sealant so not as bad as i thought. tried to trim my catch tank lines what a mess that turned out to be couldn't cut the braided line with out it fraying need to think of a way of doing it so its a clean cut. so I'm currently using hose pipe till i can sort it out haha.

jellybaby Posted February 21, 2015 Posted February 21, 2015 (edited) what u need to do is wrap the end of the braided line with say some plastic tape the cut with a hacksaw blade if not fire it in you tube there loads of ways to cut the line and not have it fraying http://youtu.be/PeeflgGlenY Edited February 21, 2015 by jellybaby Quote
