SPiN Racing:
Working on a small part for the car occupying my garage that isnt mine.

Im making a fuel buss of sorts.

Basically it has two hard lines coming into it, via AN fittings.
THe buss attaches to the frame rail up near the engine.
Two AN fittings on the other side of it will have the stainless flex fuel lines running away from it to the fuel rails.
There will also be a tap for a pressure sensor.

I am half asleep.. Ok 3/4 asleep, so forgive me if this is a messy post. I will clean up after I get up later today.

Here come the pictures.

Chunk of aluminum with Crap o Mill work to make a manifold adapter I never bothered with... and used the metal for other projects.

What it will sorta look like.

SPiN Racing:
Here are a couple more pics.
I took these a few ago, when taking pics of the outside of the garage.

THis is the part roughed in.
I still need to get the pressure isolator for fuel pressure...
And it will be smaller as I remove the metal that shouldnt be there. :P

bogstandard:
Spin,

Your job proves that having a bit of machinery around the place allows you to knock up those special little bits.

Nice job and well done.

SPiN Racing:
Had some time today to work on this thing after tramming the head of the mill.

Removed material that didnt belong.. and squared surfaces some. Getting it pared down.
Thing is.. Im trying to get my brain around... what I need to remove to make the part look like I want. I spose a good machinist makes only a few passes to make the part, instead of 234239408 passes, trying to figure how to get down to the end result.
