1/16th 57 Chevy Turbo ProMod (03-14-13) Finished Bull-Horns with V-band clamps

Joe I did recieve the 3" turbos. Do you want their dimensions?

Sure that would be great.

[Prostreet]

Well i decided to try and build my own rack and here is what i came up with. The boots on the end's are off the TDR rack, I haven't decided how i'm doing the tie rods yet , once i do they will get trimmed accordingly. I still have to add the cap on top of the box portion.

How about someone measure the Minor side of the Compressor like on a 1:1 and get the true dimensions this way? This would help everyone know exactly what MM not only the 3"and the 2.5" TDR Turbo actually are in a 1:1 application.

Or by chance are these spec's that TRD uses, the actual scaled down dimensions for the compressor?

Joe, great work on the tanks mate, and that rack is to die for.....Fantastic work there man.

[vintagedragfan]

super work Joe, maybe find some thin O rings and stack them on the ends for the boots

[Prostreet]

Thx. Guys, Bill that's a great idea, I have an assortment of tiny o-rings in the basement.

[Prostreet]

Got the rear body support added and the fire bottle mounts done, Gonna finish adding the rest of the bars in the back and front of chassis tommarrow. Then all that's left to do is the chassis part of the door latch and a couple other little things and the chassis will be ready for primer after i check all my joints.

Outstanding work Joe, thanks for sharing with us.

[Prostreet]

Thx. Guys, I Built a single wheelie bar today based off the 96" R2B2 bar but not 100% accurate, I used RB motion rod ends and will use RB motion bolts for detail and Dirt modeler photoetched parts. Still have to fill down the ends where the rod ends go in then i can paint it. Gonna turn down a wheel for it on the lathe tommarow and maybe throw the car together for a picture with it mounted.

[tyrone]

wheelie bar looks great Joe....

[eviltwincustoms]

Nice wheelie bar set up Joe, looks like it is ready to hook up to a 1:1 and give it a test run! Curious where did you end up setting up your top connecting points?

[Prostreet]

Thx. Guys, Bart i did a bracket on the rear cover like the on in this link.

Oh ok, that looks very similar to the one I just finished building based on the Mark Williams pic I have from their Catalog.

[Prostreet]

Thx. Guys, Couple pictures of the bar mounted with the body on.I also turned down a wheel out of delrin on the lathe. Wanna try to get the bar painted and finished tommarrow.
