Excellent work ! What type of bender did you use for the suspension tubes ?

Firstly, I used a steel pipe with a one-piece diameter of 25mm wall of 2.5mm. Secondly, the bending radius of the pipe is 50 mm. This is the radius I drew well, just because of the beauty. That in the manufacturing process brought me a lot of problems. To begin with, I went to friends who build motorcycles they had a regular pipe bender of this type. In general, I immediately got a pipe room with a flattening. In the photo below I will be an example. Then I began to puzzle how to make a bend? I refreshed knowledge, read books, looked at technology. And I decided to make a pipe bender of this type. It is universal and then useful for other works. But because of its versatility, it is difficult to bend a pipe with a small bend radius. I had to make such a small roller and 2 mandrels. In general, see the result on the photo.

Good day to all. Finally, the turner cut out the cones and seats for the nozzles. And this weekend I started assembling. First, I printed out the sweep of the surfaces. Then I applied and turned the lines of the cut. Then I cut off all the excess on these lines, and everything got up as it should. Then I weld all the details. Tomorrow I will clean up the protruding places. The result was an intake manifold. Throttle valves from Toyota Levin motor 4age.

Impressive in both design and execution. Keep posting!

Hello everyone, and with the last Christmas. I thought for a long time about how to make a gas cable drive. Many watched different options. Then I built a 3d model, superimposed kinematics. There was little space inside the cockpit. I had to take him out for a motor shield. Look, maybe someone will be interested. P.S. thanks for the support.

Good day to all. I have not written for a long time since we had severe frosts and I worked very little. But I managed to do something. The first is a major engine repair. A complete set of boring of the cylinder block, new pistons, easier connecting rods, etc. The cylinder head was made to me by a nice guy, it's porting channels, lightweight valves, etc. (If I'm interested in detail, I'd like to make a second one for the gas tank. The third one started to lay the brake line. I bought such tanks on the Internet, and they are trying to install a large one. One line does not work. Need your opinion as it looks from the outside, beautiful or not? And he ordered a lot of small details from the turner, I've been waiting for a whole month to do it. Oh, and here I decided to print the nose fairing on the 3d printer. Also a whole month is printed.

That's very innovative use of a 3D printer in creating that nose cone. I wish I'd have thought of that. Cheers,

That throttle cable design is pretty cool. Nice nose cone too - makes me wish I had a 3D printer! Add that to the list - mill, lathe, 3D printer... Is there a way for you to check the spray patter from the injectors? I would wonder about it because of how high up they are, if that makes sense. Very good work!

Possibility to check up a torch of splashes is. But even if that not so I will not alter. At us such collectors are made on sale, but you would see what horror there do. There nozzles almost vertically stand.

Before you weld up the gas tank, add a couple baffles, dividing the tank in 1/3's. You may even want to consider adding hinged gates to the baffles leading into your center fuel pump area. I learned the hard way and had to add a sump because I only used one baffle in my original design. Dave W

So, today for the first time in a week I got to the garage and immediately ran to try on the nose fairing. I got up almost perfectly. And I also bought a radiator from Honda Civic. Even today I took the parcel with a light flywheel!
