1964 Dart Grüne Hölle Road Course/Track Day/AutoX Project
4/19/21:
I finally Finished up the Oil Pan - Added Some More Baffles at the Front and Back to Separate the Sump from the Area Just under the spinning crank. I also added a windage Screen.. It's Held in with 4 Button head screws that I loctited in place. Also Added a provision for the Dipstick (thanks MadScientistMatt)
I put the mock up block back in and Hung an old Head on the block along with the bell housing, Z, Bar, Clutch Fork and Headers. Began mocking up the exhaust. Waiting for my 2nd Argon regulator to arrive so I can weld it correctly with some back purge argon inside the tube.
The Pan is finally done - whatta beast it was to make that part..
It actually looks somewhat normal with the fresh paint on there.
Windage Screen Should help somewhat.
"glued" down the Crank Scraper and the Oil Pan spacer on the other side.
Mock up Block back in to begin the Exhaust Primary Tube mockups... The Front tubes will take a bit of time.
Slice and dice.
Backpurging is recommended for a reason..so is using a TIG machine that has a foot pedal and is not a lift start
