Re: PO has me PO'd
Glad that they work for you! If you've sent out free parts, you just paid back a little.

Re: PO has me PO'd
20130721_101336 by jarosaj, on Flickr Hammer and chisel to start hole, then tin snips. After neck was off tank, blow torch and 7/16" wrench. Hold neck horizonal and let gravity help by flowing old solder away. Repop tank has smaller locating/mounting bolts, so well see how that works out

Re: PO has me PO'd
Ordered my injectors from fast today, 36 lb@58 psi=331.00. Still working on my order for fuel line 3/8" wall thickness. 035, 90/10 copper nickel
Went to offer up fuel tank and ran into a problem, if i put into stock location, interferance with second to last cross sill, could fix it by sectioning in a piece of flat stock in the middle for about a foot and a half....alot of work! Second option, body lift of about 1 1/2", alot of work and money! Third option, relocate tank forward about 1 1/2", required to drill 6 holes, and maybe buy a new fuel filler hose. I think i will opt for 3, but everytime i think of drilling large holes, tom vogel comes to mind with a broken wrist. So, when i use my 3/4" chuck drill ill use the handle adapter and hope i can control the torque...if not the build will halt for awhile, and i will utter several curse words. Man that has got to be painful! Cant think of any options short of renting a magnetic base drill Recieved the fuel pump connecter from vette works out in washington state. Only need two leads 12v, and ground, other two will be deleted, they are for the sending unit, and i am using the oem sending unit that came with the tank Gotta take the connecter apart, and check what pins they use, i want to get rid of any splices 20130723_135557 by jarosaj, on Flickr

Re: PO has me PO'd
Hey Jim a lot of nice machine work just on that ring alone...if I may ask the dumb question whats the problem with the tank install? fuel supply and return lines, ..Also this is going to be a pressure system will an original filler neck seal enough.? Ed.

Re: PO has me PO'd
Quote:
The whole problem with the install is that the pump can only mount in one flat spot on the tank, so all changes have to be made to accomadate that location. The actual lines seem to be the easy part, i can rotate the pump just about 360 degrees, just not aimed at the cross sills The pump shouldnt build pressure in the tank, as it has a vent system right between the supply and return line fittings. So, there shouldnt be any pressure at the fill cap. Hope i answered your question. I dont believe there are any dumb questions on this board, if you dont know the answer, then you have to ask the question.....

Re: PO has me PO'd
Jim
Make sure if you are drilling the holes for nutserts you use the knurled type. If you use the smooth type on anything other than a punched hole they will eventually slip and make it so you cant get the bolt back out. Ask me how I know LOL. McMaster has both kinds. Richard

Re: PO has me PO'd
If you have book 119 it is page 3270 or go to there website McMaster.com and type "heavy duty rivet nuts" it will bring you to next screen that has option for heavy duty rivet nuts. from there you can choose what type (open /closed and metric / SAE)

Re: PO has me PO'd
If I recall it is around $100 for a decent gun that wont break after 4 or 5 pulls. I can also send ya some gripcerts and the 25/64 bit if its just gonna be a one time thing for you. Just let me know if I can help. I will have to check but I think it will all fit in a flat rate box so it would just cost ya 6 bucks to send it back when your done. This is my manual gun that I dont use anymore. Just keep it for backup in case my high lever gun breaks, so its no rush sending back.
Richard

Re: PO has me PO'd
Jim,
I have had the best luck with the 95105A143 nutserts. They look like this. I also checked the gun size and it will not fit in small flat rate by about an inch. UPS ground appears to be about 10 bucks each way. Richard
