Ron's 1970-6r Progress

Next Up, Blau 110mm Fuel & 80mm Oil Caps

The next project for the rocket will be to convert the Fuel and oil caps over to the Blau 110mm for the fuel, and 80mm cap for the oil tank.

I just received these caps from a fellow over in Europe. The Fuel cap is as received, and is actually polished stainless steel. The oil cap is polished aluminum.

On the fuel side I am going to have the fuel cap go up through the hood, and have a locking gas gap hidden below the Blau cap when it is removed. The Blau gap will be secured with a lanyard to keep it from getting stolen.

On the oil side I'll probably butcher up a 911 oil inlet to mount the cap to.

Both caps will have a handle made to remove them easily.

Ron
