I love my job.
Whenever I have some new part in a mold It's like opening a Christmas present.
Even after all the years I still get excited.
The only thing thing is that even if you've been a good little boy you don't always get what you asked for.
The composite Santa has a wicked sense of humor.
Glassfiber can be fixed if it's not great but the black stuff is a hit or miss.
I put more work into this water neck than it's worth but the OEM Ford was just a straight up tube on a flange so it needed to go.
A piece of useless info is that the flange on the Cleveland water neck is identical to the exhaust flange on a Harley.
That was the starting point.
Today I got to open a mold and I just know the part in there is a good one.
Some images. It still has the release agent on it but I love it.
