Awesome work Sandeep.
So you need a special primer over the POR15 before you can cover it with the Tremclad ? Do you have a heated garage or does the POR15 cure in low temps as well ? Thanks, Rob. |

You need a primer to bond to the POR 15 called Tie Coat primer made by POR 15. Other paints then bond to the tie coat primer.
I have a BBQ propane tank with a heater attachment, so the area around the pan stays at about 15C All work has been done by myself. Now I just have to bolt the whole thing together Summer 2010 is the goal. Sandeep |

Nice work Sandeep, props on keeping the project going. My attention span is way too short for long-term ones like that, I need to be able to drive it!!
Remember I'm not far away from you, if you find yourself in a situation where you need an extra set of hands while working on it. Looking forward to seeing the car and getting a ride in it this summer. cheers Ed N.

Good stuff. You will love the Tilton pedals. I have installed a set in the Herbie X project. There are some problem ares you will have to work around but they will fit and work. I want to put a set in my car but have not had the time or funds to do it.

The TB's are tapered 50mm / 45mm extrudabody.com units that flow more than 48mm TWM's. All the information is on their website.

Some more progress on another major project on the pan ... the tilton pedals
What a pain in the A$$ to get these to fit properly. I had to "massage" the drivers side heater channel and make a base plate to bolt the pedals do as the pan material is thin. I like the fit, now just need to run the brake / clutch slave lines. I've got some proper couplers made up, don't mind the welded nuts ... Sandeep |
