Not much for progress on the 6 this week. My brothers finally got some free time to help get the shop stone wall up. Then without fail the rain moved in and now it's a wait game til next week. I did start the rebuild on a set of S calipers. I installed all new PMB pistons, seal kit, pads and hardware. Looks like I was not shipped the two O-rings for the caps so waiting on those to arrive this week.

Wow Luke!
I just spent the past hour reading through your project. Amazing patience & persistence as well as first class workmanship. I'll go and pack your oil line/fittings now. |

Thanks Tom.. I've watched your GT build and it's come a long way. As you know I'm working on mocking up my front oil cooler. Putting the fitting that I got from you to use.
Gotta say thanks to Rory too for the tech help on the reusable aluminum factory fittings and the custom built tool. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) Here's a few pics of the front oil cooler line install. Ben's GT lines, troutman (old school) T-stat which uses a 911 engine oil T-stat, and remote oil filter installed before oil heads to the t-stat/tank/front cooler. Currently working on where to mount a few things and figuring out the hose routing. I've been looking for some AN-12 ORB to metric 30mm adapters but having a hard time finding one. These would replace the AN fittings on the T-stat. I'd like to keep everything plumbed in metric. Anyone have a source that I maybe missing ? Attached image(s)
