Default Re: Rotrex Guy

Well, I got to spend 4-5 hours on her today and made some great progress. I'm really proud of how she is shaping up!

I snapped a couple of quick pics to share. On that note, I haven't gotten around to hooking up my server after the move the rest of the pics in this thread are dead. I'll try to get a chance to work on that, then get them moved over to the gallery so I don't have to worry about that happening again.

I finished the tweaks to the SC mount and other except for the brace. I then completed the IC plumbing and routed the intake, then placed the air filter behind the grill. Lastly, I found a suitable place for the Rotrex fluid reservoir and set it in place.

That said, there is still a lot to do! I have to make a silencer and route a hose down from the bov to hide the noise it makes. Install the rotrex fluid HE and IC HE. Not to mention the Ford lightning pump and all of the fluid plumbing. Then I have to circle back around to testing and double checking all electrical connections before I start it up and lastly run a boost signal to the fuel pump!

Then test, tweak, and tune. I ran out of black hoses and had to slip a blue one in there behind the grill, as well as, use an old filter that isn't in the best shape. However, that was all stuff I had in a box to make it work. Once I prove the design I will replace these parts with bright and shiny

Whew!
