Jack is
now gluing the underside of the dash. This will be done using
a layer of cloth for strength and a mat for the finish.
Jack also
installed the windshield wiper mount, which was indexed before
it was removed from the car and re-indexed with clecos upon
gluing. The picture on the right is the front cooler cover
mold (undertray). Duratech has been applied and the part will
be made next.
The oil
tank is in pretty good shape, but notice the wood spacers.
Wood was used to center the oil tank for the mounting strapsand
the felt was applied over the wood to keep fretting to a minimum.
We are
very happy the way the next 6 cylinder header system has turned
out. We use Carrera 6 headers from the engine. We make the
collector (3 into 1) which connect the cookie cutter extractor
(tail pipes). The pipe hanger is fabricated to pick up the
bolts in the transmission tail housing. The cones, which house
the super trapps, bolt right to the end of the pipes. All
of the 6 cylinder 904's will receive this header package.
The following
photos are from the header installation on 904-067.
The super
trapps are used instead of a sport muffler mainly because
they are 1/8th the weight. They sound really great and they
don't rob the motor of much horsepower.
The fit
is close but clean. The look is even better. The application
of the super trapps is simple...super trapps on - drive it
on the road - super trapps off - drive it at the track. This
takes about ten minutes....way too easy!
