e85 + meth i am sure would exceed MBT...

and besides i dont have access to E85

 

Bump! Get a move on, its almost winter! Oh wait.... Figure out the tank mount yet?

 

well the tanks should being posted today/tomorrow from the states

Then once I get them I just need to plot out the holes on my bracket...

still need to finalise the thickness of the bracket... im thinking 3mm, but really need to engineer it properly

yeh its taking so damn long

 

Got everything yet?

 

no yet

hoping to have it all this week

then final fab design for the bracket... then INSTALL hehe

 

Here is a Howerton Engineering tank install in my Evo X by HB Speed.

 

ok i have everything now

next step is to drill the tanks.

is it ok to drill across the seam? it wont weaken or cause splitting will it?

 

No there should not be any problems. My tank has hole at the seems on both sides.

 

thanks!

22mm or 23mm hole saw is the way to go?

 

thanks!

22mm or 23mm hole saw is the way to go?

 

bump for aquamist powered evoX in aussieland Drill the isht and get it mounted already!

 

23mm is better, less stress to the gasket. Please ensure the inside edge of the hole is smooth.

On second thought, if you are using a hole saw, it might over cut, Uuse 22 mm and open it up with a reamer or file, it is safer.

 

^Also use lots of silicone, just helps prevent leaks from showing up down the road.

 

Once a clean and burr-free hole is made, there should not be any need for silicone.

 

ok bit of an update :

1) I have everything
2) Dog ate the water level sensor, so I need to get a new one DOH
3) The bracket design is done and being fabricated, hopefully I will have it ASAP

Once the bracket is done I can mount everything in the boot and run lines to the engine. Should I run the Meth lines UNDER the car? or inside the car? Does it matter?
