FILFAN Posted December 4, 2013 Posted December 4, 2013 Filfan developments have been busy tonight and nearly finished my latest project. Can you guess what its going to be? it has 1 machining operation left to do tomorrow which will be done on the mill. its not a coin holder the 50p is for scale. Quote
Dave Eastwood (Gadgetman) - Club Chairman Posted December 4, 2013 Posted December 4, 2013 Don't know, but looks remarkably similar to the drift I made for fitting XE cam seals! (Though as that didn't need milling, i guess it's just a coincidence). Quote
FILFAN Posted December 4, 2013 Author Posted December 4, 2013 Nope it will be a permanent part of the engine Quote
Dave Eastwood (Gadgetman) - Club Chairman Posted December 4, 2013 Posted December 4, 2013 Cam mounted trigger wheel. Quote
FILFAN Posted December 4, 2013 Author Posted December 4, 2013 The prize is a very lucky M8 nut. Or unlucky depending on how you look at it Quote
Dave Eastwood (Gadgetman) - Club Chairman Posted December 4, 2013 Posted December 4, 2013 It was the fact it reminded me of the seal driver for the other end so much, only put two and two together when I reread the bit about milling it. Nice work. What are you using at the moment, or are you still batch fire? Quote
FILFAN Posted December 5, 2013 Author Posted December 5, 2013 No am using the hall sensor in the dizzy but the cams in the new head dont have the extended exhaust shaft. The trigger wheel will replace the big washer that holds the pulley on. All the testing will be done on the engine before swapping heads so I know it works Quote
Dave Eastwood (Gadgetman) - Club Chairman Posted December 5, 2013 Posted December 5, 2013 Ah, I'd forgotten you'd still got the dizzy assembly in place. Always good to see someone trying something different on the XE. Quote
FILFAN Posted December 5, 2013 Author Posted December 5, 2013 had a spare hour today so got the thing finished rather than a tooth i opted for the cut out as this is what is in the dizzy will get the nose off the car later and look at making the bracket to fit the sensor Quote
