12:05 Garage- ’70 Duster build
Knocked out some small items but otherwise didn't work on the car much this past weekend. I painted the Cerakote on the radiator overflow tank and power steering reservoir and got each of them back installed. Power steering lines are done except 1 fitting at the pump. I did receive the Turn1 flow reducer and I also installed the pressure reducer from Sublime. I'm hoping the combination of those two items work with the steering rack. I received all the parts for the air intake tube and filter. I need to weld a 1/2" pipe coupling in it for the IAT sensor and I'll also make a small bracket to help support it. Once the welding done, I'll paint the tube with Cerakote.
I also made another throttle body adapter. In my first version, I had the center of the intake opening matching the center of the 90mm t-body opening with a bevel all around to taper it down to the smaller hole. This made some things very close on the throttle lever. On my second version, I lined up the bottom and simply beveled the top gradually going to no taper on the bottom. I didn't take any pics but I'll snap some if I ever take it off.
I'm about 50% done with my throttle cable bracket. I'll post up some pics when it's done.
Since I switched to a dual pass radiator to keep the inlet/outlet on the right side, that means the cap will be on the opposite side. This means I had to make a new steel overflow line.
