Hi Jeff,
If I use the longer 16830-72 studs, do the cases need threading deeper? (I hate touching stuff that looks OK!!!)
Good progress today, had a good garage clean up, it was starting to look messy... Then did some serious grinding in the plenum to smooth out the transition between the 2"1/2 pipe and the nipples...
I started on the bottom bit here, but the top is untouched, you can judge the steps!!!
Bit more, nearly there...
Then polishing... It's not perfect but it'll do for today!!!
Moded slightly my twin carb manifold alloy clamp and welded 2 nuts on the plenum, I'll have to improve my TIG welding...
Also measured a few things to draw on auto CAD for the other end of the plenum... All that this morning.
Afternoon, I spent redoing some brackets for the fairing, but evening came, no lights so no photos!!!
All the best from Patrick
