Reason for not being around here much is I'm making a push to get my conversion done and on the road. So you could say I'm around in 914 spirit. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

I found a great big hole in my firewall. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

I know many don't like the stock firewall pad, heavy known to trap water, but there's zero rust behind mine, that just glue.
Mostly using it because I'm starting to get sensitive to the loud and a weber /6 is going to need all the help it can get in the noise deadening dept.

I made a mount for my MSD out of an old butchered 914/6 repro CDI mount. It's almost out of sight and it needs no extension for the trigger connection.

Looking good! You will need to drive it one time without the cover on there. It sounds amazing.

Hi Walter I'll take it! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

My engine to be safe I'll run about a 6800 red line, but it's fully balanced, ARP rod bolts, heavier eibach sport valve springs, etc., so on paper I should have a 72-7300 rpm red line.
The 7K pill should work fine for me.

I almost never hit the rev limiter anyways, as they are actually hard on the engine due to loading/unloading forces...it's one of those lesser of two evils type of deals.

I'll PM you.

Tried my first aluminum TIG welding project it a breather/puke can.

What can I say, likely not even close to Ben's standards, Welding Al is not as easy as it looks, but after watching a bunch of YT vids I was able to get some semi-decent welds. A lot of technique, like driving a car the has two clutches, two sticks and you have to adjust the timing manually all at the same time.
Likely didn't help that I was using some very old left outside Al sheet I found.

That said I think it's passable. I made the can so it clears the lid springs and the lid release tube. It's fully baffled and has a sump that holds over a quart of scummy oil. the finished install will have a petcock valve and a tube running down so I can drain it right into my oil pan. bottom has a hole cut to 1/8" NPT.

Wonder if anyone would be interested in this as a product (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif)
I do have all the patterns and bending forms.

The puke was practice for the number one thing holding up my project...the 914-6 cooler.

Why I made such a big hole.
As an experiment I left off my front tin to see if it can be R&R in car, yes it can but the screws are a real PITA to put in.
The upside is I can easily do the timing, R&R the fan/alt and even the front chain covers in car. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/thumb3d.gif)

I made up these puppies to attach my heat hoses. No heat for now so Ill just cap the bottoms off, but if I add heater boxes I'm ready to go.
BTW except for my front shroud tin I made the surround tin.
