|
|
Last night I had been reading about head tins and noticed that the small tin pieces on my heads are missing and trying to find these pieces are impossible.
So while I was making pasta for dinner last night it came to me.
What?
BTW,,, the pasta was great.

I got a set of those from a guy at Rimco who pulled them off a set of junk heads. They are not that difficult to make either. I have read here about guys who just cut their own out of sheet metal. Funny how a silly little piece of metal has importance on these motors. |

You know Casey, those are great tins but yesterday I was busy working on cleaning my tins and finishing up on putting the long block together that I didn't get to the computer until this morning to see your post and now the whole long block is complete.
I will keep you in mind for my next one though. I'm gonna build me a back up engine for my bug.
Now, if only you could CNC manifolds for my Webers to clear my tins.
There would be a market for that work. Just take the one that come with the kit and shave off just enough to clear so we don't have to butcher up the tins. _________________ '73 SB

Hit me up in a couple of months and hopefully the machine will be back up and running, I am also going to be making "Industrial tins" in stainless as well.
