The oil seperator would not fit where it originally went. It also would not fit on the back of the engine using the original bracket.
I decided to take it apart, and rebuild the same thing but a slighty different size to mount on the back of the engine.
1. Here is where it originally went. I places the downpipe close to the engine to make more space for my legs. |
|
2. This is the space where it once went. |
3. Drain pipe moved over to the side. |
|
4. This is where I want it to go. |
5. I first wanted to try to remove just the bracket. |
|
6. Even using my largest spot weld cutter, this was a no go. |
7. First cut was along the center line. |
|
8. Top baffle. |
9. All apart. two levels of baffles are all it has in it. |
|
10. Stacked back together. |
11. Bottom drain with the side piece on. |
|
12. Down inside. |
13. Bottom completed. |
|
14. Outside main body. |
15. First baffle layer. |
|
16. Second baffle layer, and an extra one in the top vent area. |
17. Final outside shape. |
|
18. Bracket attached. |
19. In place with the hoses in place. |
|
20. Tried grinding down the welds, and ground a bit too far. |
21. Smoothed down a bit. |
|
22. Primed. |
23. Painted and drying. |
|
24. In place and mounted. |
One step closer.
More to come. Trans tunnel are almost done but there's a little more before I can put the page together.
