Running electrical, mounting various things, and unfortunately not much metal work that is all that has transpired in the last many months since my last update

Seen here is just the tip of what can only be described as a wiring speghetti fest





Making a grounding platform for all those needy electrical devises because electricity is a lazy phenomenon. "oh look at me I am electricity, I can only flow through a path with the least amount of resistance"



This will be riveted to the body aka (earth)



Looks like the engine has a bad hair day



Heat shrink and solder on most everything to keep the corrosion at bay





Have I mentioned how much I love these hoes cutters?



Miles of heat shrink used



Enough of that! Now onto when I mounted the ecu



Aluminum base plate



Snap lock velcro



Little braces to ensure the ecu doesn't shake about the cabin







Nice tight fit



And if that wasn't enough here is some kill switch mounting eye candy







From the back



Final resting place



Some profiling and finessing



Cant forget the bending



Now I am safe with this in arms reach, safety 3rd right?



That is it unfortunately for now

Keep on trucking man, shit is awesome!

That's a good idea. I'll do something like that (but much worse), thanks.

This has the potential to be one of the best car related internet threads ever, if it isn't there yet. So much porn. Keep it up man, I learn a lot just from reading your posts.

I love how throwing in that custom Haltech display is your one-casual-post-in-an-epic-thread. Doing that same thing would be a holy shit look what I spent the last 18 months doing type deal for me lol.

Amazeballs.

Ya it has gotten a little out of hand but I still a few more cool things up my sleeve

This build and everything about it is amazing. Cant wait for more updates.

I try every update to make the most of everyone's time and create something interesting to at least look at

Oh my fuck. Literally the definition of build thread. Congrats this is absolutely amazing

Good to hear and thank you, love the encouragement comments

This is FAP-tastic!

much fap lol

Damn

OMG that racepack from Haltech is so sick. Amazing build.

Dude worth every penny its a thing of beauty

Holy Fack, your work ethic and quality is amazing.

Patience is the key to almost everything

That looks SO AMAZING.

Thanks dude

Bought a Bridgeport,now to make some cool stuff



Since the exhaust manifold is running over the transmission there is going to be some extra heat, to remedy this I built the armor/shield from a previous post but the VTC solenoids have been a concern of mine so I decided to make a little extra heat protection

The usual solid bar stock 6061



Quick little buzz cut on the lathe to make them pretty



Making some flat ends





Plunge some holes



Now the hole is established I can now rotate the piece 180 then locate the opposing side with the end mill





Cutoff using the lathe



4 little dudes



Here is the VTC solenoid and the shield mounts in place



Bit of AL tubing for the shield





Scribing a line on the lathe



Milling the tubing thin on the scribe line so I can easily snap the section of tubing by hand



Halved



Back to the lathe to finish the mounts



This is an old way to make a key way on a lathe (I know I could do this on the mill but I used this trick all the time before I had the mill)



This is a no power operation! take a flat sharp cutoff blade and mount it horizontally in the tool holder and proceed to run the blade into the material while increasing the depth of the cut minutely each pass



Makes a perfect key way



Milled the inner edges of the tube halves so they now have a nice edge on both sides





Last but certainly not least the ubiquitous gold insulator wrap



Has a very satisfying SNAP! when mounted



Happy with it and it is stupid easy to remove requires no tools to remove or install, win win in my book
