OK @bobm I'm just now getting to a stopping point on the 53 for a day or two and I can start coming up with a way to fixture these injectors to machine them.
Version one!

 

[bobm]

So you gonna make them out of a solid block of aluminum?? Cause those are cast!! Or are you just machining these???

 

[J Mack]

are you just machining these???

Just machining these, they are old school Hilborn sprint car injectors and I'm converting them to EFI.


In other news I got my Toyota headlights.

For the Toyota Nerds like @wngrog this is a picture of the box.

Sore Dick Deal $ 16.92 for a set with the wiring harness, get them before they raise the price.

You buy dem Fancy Highbeams from @ToyotaMatt

No but if he was selling them for seventeen dollars with eleven dollar shipping you bet I would have bought them from him, I did smirk just a little when I seen the Koito logo , it made me think of @ToyotaMatt and I knew he would approve!

 

[J Mack]

One down 15 to go...

You see what I'm doing now @bobm ?

 

[bobm]

Yes!

 

[J Mack]

Yes!

Now I just need to decide if I'm going with soft or hard lines....

Just messing around with some scrap copper line.

 

[55guy]

Hard lines . Soft where ya have movement or flex . Agree???

 

[bobm]

Be Cool if ya had 1 main line down the middle feeding the injectors . Polished Stainless feeding a Soft line to injectors . Just a thought!!

 

[J Mack]

100% agree if it was my pick up, but it's my brides pick up and she is expecting something fancy so I'm going to need to fluff and buff a little more than just the grill.
Hopefully you stick around and still like it when its done!

 

[J Mack]

Just a thought!!

Just ordered some stuff!

 

[J Mack]

I'm building two of these, one for my wife's pickup and one for a buddy so it's worth the time to build simple fixtures to drill the 32 holes.

 

[J Mack]

Some random pictures from today @bobm ...

Generic injector spacers that I machined to accept a 4-AN fitting

Looks like I'll be able to make them work.

Making some fuel distribution blocks..

 

[J Mack]

Ok @bobm I didn't forget about you, I bought a third Hilborn injection and had to wait for it to get here and machine it before I could move on to the next step.
Then I got side tracked and bought another car and started working on it for a few days.

 

[bobm]
