[project] The Ultimate Track 205

weld them together...? lol

 

And make one complete filler rod? I like your thinking.

[TT205 42]

Not being into welding - is that ^^ all waste?

[Cameron 16]

Yeah those are just filler wire stubbies. Most are about an inch long.

 

Some of them I'm right at the end of a weld so use it until it burns my fingers off, some I chuck at a sensible length.

Do you still get good penetration with a 1 incher?

can we officially say that, that isnt a 205 anymore??

Cameron, do your welds have to be certificated, only asking as I know the btcc stuff etc have to be for regulations.

[alexcrosse 124]

no, msa.

Now that do look good and cant wait to see some more.

Might aswell chop the front end off to make it easier to weld the cage...then weld it back on

It's still a 205 silhouette, so still a 205 in my books.

MSA guidance on welding: All welding should be of the highest possible quality with full penetration and preferably using a gas shielded arc.

 

So no need for certification.

Everything in front of the B-pillar is already fully welded.

I'm cutting the roof skin off next, which will make welding the roof bars easier.

Everytime i look at this im amazed by your talent,im really looking forward to the body stages,any idea how far that is away?

spotted this on Facebook and the sump made me think that this could be mounded in your car nice and low!

[crossflow 2]

Pace sump has mounting point on the front of the sump where you could make an adaptor to mount to the chassis. Alot cheaper than above solution

[EdCherry 34 1 Cars]

Above solution is it becomes a stressed member in the chassis - front and rear. Looks like something that Ligier (the car in the background I think) would make...

that's from a Juno

[Cameron 16]

I have mounts on my Dry Sump and on the bellhousing. I'm kinda spoilt for choice.

[shalmaneser 26]

whats the pulley top right of that engine for? I can see alernator, dry sump and (a massive?) idler pulley but whats the other one?

[grandos 16]

Water pump, or high pressure fuel most likely!

[adman 5]

the larger pulley is probably the water pump with the top right either an idler or tensioner pulley

[EdCherry 34 1 Cars]

That isn't a juno in the background, and that sump certainly doesn't look like anything I've ever seen in a juno.
