Hi all,
At the track today my muffler/megaphone hanger broke. Does anyone know where to get this type with the holes? I thought it was pretty cool, except for the breaking part. It did last several years. I know I can use a stock 2.0 one for this application but I don't think I have one at the moment and I think it's heavier and boring lookiing. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/first.gif) Thanks! |

You'd think the reinforcement would prevent that failure.
Mmmmmmm......are you going to use that MFI cam ? |

You'd think the reinforcement would prevent that failure. Mmmmmmm......are you going to use that MFI cam ? that reinforcement termination was the cause of the break by creating a hard point for bending to originate, continued flexing in that area led to fatigue. |

Yep....also heat expansion/contraction. Trace it draw it up in cad and have someone burn it out for you Chris. I have Pro E or Solid Works if you want it done. I can't fab it though, a 4 foot laser table is still on my bucket list. |
