minirotty Posted December 5, 2013 Author Share Posted December 5, 2013 Finally after getting a couple of fitting orders wrong as once I have driven home form the unit my memory sometimes gets things wrong lol FUELAB FPR fittings are all sorted now and also the PSI dial gauge... http://i139.photobucket.com/albums/q311/minirotty1/A78E688D-706B-4A94-8515-6484F66D2890-15771-00000F15AC7FBF6E_zpsf8f3e69f.jpg The slave cylinder fits and looks well in the bay, just now to sort out the bracketry for it to fit to the box, but Coley is helping me with that one as he's a wiz with metal work bespoke items! http://i139.photobucket.com/albums/q311/minirotty1/A9C58E71-4958-457C-9056-44BAB1FFDE8B-15771-00000F1599AA59CE_zpse97eb95f.jpg http://i139.photobucket.com/albums/q311/minirotty1/0C08C217-F873-4A89-BF15-A9770EF68CCA-15771-00000F15A2F2D4B9_zpsbd692243.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minirotty Posted December 7, 2013 Author Share Posted December 7, 2013 My magical mate Ian Cole "Coley" has been working again... My oil cooler had -10 fittings welded on and I need -12 so he's removed them... http://i139.photobucket.com/albums/q311/minirotty1/BA3D02FF-7B01-4BCE-AF50-AC88C2FA69E1-754-00000091392A6745_zps559b0f3e.jpg http://i139.photobucket.com/albums/q311/minirotty1/CCD3D641-028B-4B64-A145-2DAAA223DD94-754-0000009131328F9F_zps46ba2f2a.jpg Just to get some new -12 fitting to go on now. I have a one off rocker cover that was gained from a black cab lol The special bit of it is that it came standard with no oil filler hole, and as I am running dry sump, I don't need a filler hole! But also I need to modify the oil breather system on it to run -10 to a catch tank... so old hole needs a machined piece welding in it and a weld on fitting putting on the side, Ian has machined me a piece to fit... http://i139.photobucket.com/albums/q311/minirotty1/D3C20F65-86DE-4963-9D3B-9E1EFEC138FC-754-000000913571A5C6_zps7c500c0d.jpg http://i139.photobucket.com/albums/q311/minirotty1/B30F33AF-848D-4068-92A0-F05F774B3D20-754-000000912D5104D2_zps5bdf0a75.jpg http://i139.photobucket.com/albums/q311/minirotty1/D325E8EB-C5A4-4C7A-86CB-FE21E9A01AB1-754-00000091285521E7_zpscbbc03ec.jpg http://i139.photobucket.com/albums/q311/minirotty1/62BF8B98-649D-438E-BB2A-C8ED90226F2E-754-000000913CF0AA73_zps91b2f1f4.jpg http://i139.photobucket.com/albums/q311/minirotty1/612788FE-0CB1-414E-B249-BFD5A7D796F5-754-0000009142A7220F_zps8a39d212.jpg http://i139.photobucket.com/albums/q311/minirotty1/0AED97D6-C2F2-4EF8-AEFC-DD12721FFCF1-754-000000914744F7C1_zps339d9156.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

minirotty Posted December 27, 2013 Author Share Posted December 27, 2013 Some more parts arrived today for my pedal box build, few concerns with the box as even though it's from a Maxi F2/Kit Car when I place it up to the bulk head with the column in, it hits the column. I have the original GrpA shell it came out of up the unit so will have to put it back in that and see how it clears... Fitted up the master cylinders just to size up. http://i139.photobucket.com/albums/q311/minirotty1/D2C25C75-673C-41C5-8D5F-3EA930EDBA8E-61001-00001563B92263E9_zps9b16292f.jpg http://i139.photobucket.com/albums/q311/minirotty1/88FABC6A-2FDD-470D-A187-423CC5188568-61001-00001563C3C1721C_zpsab6c3500.jpghttp://i139.photobucket.com/albums/q311/minirotty1/7B8B655F-B6A5-4E85-9D9D-CB843D10980A-61001-00001563CB1B368F_zpsd69157bf.jpg Also have to make up a throttle pedal to go on this pedal box...

minirotty Posted December 31, 2013 Author Share Posted December 31, 2013 My seem a boring update but this has been testing my patients for a while now, the pedal box. Firstly the rose bearing needed to be floating in the pedal for the bias bar but my pedal wasn't big enough for bearing, so popped into me mate Daves on way home from work this afternoon and he worked his magic with the welder for me. He has cut up a bit of motorsport history though lol http://i261.photobucket.com/albums/ii74/Minirotty2/E6BF76B6-8067-4A8F-99B0-2E1E5F367CD2-1723-000001B9BF20799F_zps82963da4.jpg http://i261.photobucket.com/albums/ii74/Minirotty2/A632C8C6-93D5-4DCB-BE4F-B5F10FAC3995-1723-000001B9D2DAE865_zps46b9f569.jpg http://i261.photobucket.com/albums/ii74/Minirotty2/2E71EDC5-FADD-4683-883C-D381C7BD6C01-1723-000001B9CB11E806_zps0ad6c04c.jpg http://i261.photobucket.com/albums/ii74/Minirotty2/0E490A49-6535-4EDD-837A-DBD65DE53324-2843-000002DEE0CFD23C_zps7a8549ca.jpg http://i261.photobucket.com/albums/ii74/Minirotty2/91DA2BD6-AF0F-4856-B5B9-8CA2628D3115-2843-000002DEEDF9B8FE_zpsb81436be.jpg New one all fitted in... http://i261.photobucket.com/albums/ii74/Minirotty2/E7651C78-81DC-45C2-9F96-C8744884033A-2843-000002DF32AFEDE7_zpse46d7db2.jpg Looks good as new! http://i261.photobucket.com/albums/ii74/Minirotty2/99F27E06-1940-40AB-A7B1-29BD72FB3F60-2843-000002DF4CD01AA3_zpsf3d6293d.jpg http://i261.photobucket.com/albums/ii74/Minirotty2/A5C76CDF-E3D3-4EA2-B5B9-40954EC903DD-2843-000002DF54A621BE_zps335f03d8.jpg http://i261.photobucket.com/albums/ii74/Minirotty2/82AAB8F3-84BF-4FB5-BB58-FE7B2CBEA1E4-2843-000002DF608437E6_zps425fb391.jpg http://i261.photobucket.com/albums/ii74/Minirotty2/03D2C67E-350A-480B-A777-6B7CDA24E073-2843-000002DF6732128C_zpsf9f74dd5.jpg Just got to sort a rose joint for the clutch pedal now... http://i261.photobucket.com/albums/ii74/Minirotty2/E2200249-5589-4F45-8CFC-6190822AA66B-2843-000002DF728FB9DF_zpsd7d157ca.jpg http://i261.photobucket.com/albums/ii74/Minirotty2/9424F534-69FA-4BE8-A697-CB25A696D5E3-2843-000002DF7A1BD0F0_zpsc5ba15a4.jpg Now to make up a modified steering column to clear the pedal box lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minirotty Posted January 1, 2014 Author Share Posted January 1, 2014 Spent all day today at my unit, lost track of time but actually enjoyed myself up there, rarity as some times feels like a ball ache when there tbh. Started off as you do, tea and biscuits lol measured up the GrpA shell. http://i1089.photobucket.com/albums/i359/LuciferTWO666/IMG_4423_zps1652b060.jpg Removed door, dash and column... http://i1089.photobucket.com/albums/i359/LuciferTWO666/IMG_4459_zps41878fc9.jpg Then the dreaded fit!
