Question for those of you who have dry-sumped your 4-cylinder cars.
What is the tank volume everyone's using and what are you doing to keep it from draining into the crank-case when the motor isn't running? Thanks Fred |

Wow. How long long did it take to make? Could you expand on the pyramid? How thick is the aluminium? 2 return tubes?
I've never had a chance to really examine a 6. |

QUOTE(hedfurst @ Jan 29 2013, 04:13 PM)  Wow. How long long did it take to make? Could you expand on the pyramid? How thick is the aluminium? 2 return tubes? I've never had a chance to really examine a 6. uhh not long. a day or two. I say pyramid, but it just the way the tank tapers down to a point. like a funnel. then exits out the side of the taper. your car has the exit hole also....on the drivers side down in the hell hole there should be like a 1'' hole down there. I was going to use a cylindrical tank like yeamag but i just couldnt make it fit there. I cant remeber the thikness, .030? i know it was too thin for my tig skills. the next one i make im gonna make it from 0.100. i used T6 sheet. |
