Tyrone... That chassis is looking great. This is sure coming along. I love the shot of the rear wheel

John... Nice work Brother. Man that rear end is looking all nice. Happy Birthday again hope you are having a great day and you get to have more bench time for the day. Looking forward to more.

That's Very Cool

Joe... Cool Project Buddy. all of you that are doing Altered makes me want to build one as well now..LOL

Tim... All I can say is wow that Rim is gorgeous. I have no doubt that you will be able to make it. They are going to turn out fantastic. I can't wait to see when you do yours.

John... Awesome work on the rear end so far. The weathering on brakes look great. Keep the updates coming. Looking forward to the next one.

Dave... I absolutely love this build. This is so gorgeous and beautiful. It's and absolute work of art. You are making me want to build and altered now...lol ?

Tim... That is one sweet update my friend. Man do those brackets look nice. You did an outstanding job on them. What I would give to be able to have a tutorial session like you are going to get to have. That mentorship would be priceless for sure. I can't wait to see what goodies come from that...lol Keep up the great work

John... That is a pretty awesome update on the front suspension. It's looking really good. Nice work on it.

Sounds good

Mark.... that paint on the body is gorgeous. So smooth and shiney. You did a killer job on it. Very nice!

Scott... I got them from my local hobby store here in Tempe Arizona Called Hobby Depot. If you can't find them I could pick some up and mail them to you. Just let me know.

Scott... I apologize that I didn't get this to you sooner but jere are the pics of the magnets that I have

Here are some Mock Up pics on the engine:

Alright Fellas it's time for an long over due update. I have been a little slow at getting to the bench and been tinkering on the injector lines little here and little there. I finally finished the fabrication of them and got them all mocked up. I started out with using some K&S Engineering .020" Dia. Piano/music wire (which ever you like to call it) and I took some of my mothers metal polish and polished the lines to clean them up. Then I used my drawing that I created from my 3D model as a template to get the bends done on the injector lines. I had cut straight lengths of 1/32" OD brass tube and drilled out the custom nuts that I had RB Motion make for me which would slide over the 1/32" Dia Brass tube. The reason I decided to used the 1/32" Dia brass tube and drill out the nuts was to represent an actual Flared tubing. For those that may not know. you have the Flared Tube, a sleeve that goes over the tube and then you have the B-Nut which slides over the Sleeve which seals insures tube alignment with the fitting body axis and minimizes mechanical strain on the tube. I wasn't sure if I was going to be able to represent it but I have given it my best shot and I think I accomplished what I was going for. Here are the pics of the progress.... Here is the Start of the Injector lines. Here is my 2D drawing that I am using as my templates: Here I am bending the .020" Dia Piano/Music wire and over laying it on the templates: Here are all of the Components making up the Injector lines: Here they are installed into the Injector hat. You will see that I have installed the 1/32" dia brass tube into the injector hat and then the nut slides over the tube and having a little bit of the tube hanging out from the nut representing the sleeve I mentioned. Then from there the wire is inserted into the brass tube. I think I need to trim the brass tube down just a tad so not as much of the tube is showing: Bottom View so you can see all the parts:

Bill... you are welcome. if you want the excel file I can send it to you..just let me know.

Oh yeah!! I am looking forward to more on this bad boy. Great to see you back at this one Brad.

Joshua... Take a look at Dave's thread here. He has a jesel belt drive. you will have to go thru the pages because I don't remember exactly which they are on but you can see it in various pictures

Ok Fellas... I wanted you to know that I have updated the links to the broken pics. I didn't realize when I moved a folder around a few weeks ago that it broke these links. Should be back up and running now.

Bill... I moved a folder in my photobucket recently and I think it had these images in it. I will fix it when I get home from work. Everyone... I apologize. ... I will get it fixed with the updated links when I get home.

Tim... I have Bantam Fuel Altered on the Brain. I think its time for an update ..lol

John... what a killer update Brother!! You are moving right along on this build. Looks like you pretty much have the interior all done.. Already looking forward to what you are going to do next.

Randy... Holy Smokes... You are some kind of Magician. That chassis is amazing. Looking Good Buddy. I gotta ask what is your soldering board made up of. I can't figure it out...lol

John... This is going to be a killer little build. I can't wait to see progress on it. You will make an awesome model for Jeff
