Don Cook Posted June 13, 2019 Report Share Posted June 13, 2019 Last year I posted a picture of my 'clamping' collector box and also related how I got Bell silencers to make a straight through centre section of the exhaust (between the chassis rails). Well, I said it was a bit noisy and with September's 10CR in mind I've decided to replace this with a silencer. I'm after comfort and quiet, impossible I know but I'll get it as quiet as I can. I'm also reverting to standard suspension for the same reasons. I wanted to go with a 3:27 diff to compliment the 5 speed Type 9 but the one I bought was really shitty inside (no teeth missing) so going to stick with the 3:63. Some tasty bracketry there Adrian!

Thank you Don. A couple of 3D prints and a few laser-cut prototypes and, hey presto, one bracket. I’ve got access to 3D cad software and a pool of suppliers so it’s all pretty easy.

Badwolf Posted June 14, 2019 Report Share Posted June 14, 2019 Adrian - Be warned, you are going to get a list of impossible to source spares, with offers like that... now, where's my list? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joking apart, it would be interesting to see if the bracket fitted other cars with a 6-3-1 manifold and the sport system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
68vitesse Posted June 22, 2020 Report Share Posted June 22, 2020 Non high tec route for brackets I have used, get a piece of suitable flat bar cut partly through were you think the bends need to be so you can hand bend it. Offer it up shape it mark position of holes weld up the cuts drill cut off excess and fit. But then I don't have access to 3D printer etc. Regards Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
