What did you do to your BF today???

[Rocketman]

Done & mailed out

[Iantboyd]

Again. I look forward to using these bad boys. Thanks!

I have these on my car but could never remember what they are called when I tried to source new ones for someone else.
I've worked with a lot of unistrut so when I typed "strut nut" in the search engine, it displayed a lot of crap I see at work and not what I wanted.

heh...

Work in progress for Mr. Ian

Sprayed my cam/valve cover. The "after" pictures were taken with my phone 2.0 mp cam.

Before.



After.

[FE3-323]

sure looks a lot cleaner!

[mazkam]

First pic was my first attempt of getting that clean aluminium look, but I gave up after the amount of work that was involved to get it to that point by hand. Next time I will pay someone to polish my next cam/valve cover.

the polished look is awesome! but a PITA. i don't blame ya. i won't do it myself either
I opted for the cheaper method & went with a chromish powdercoat.

Seriously, I'll pay someone to finish the bpt swap in my GTX. I'll feed you while you're here, and you can sleep in my spare bedroom. Beer is included. I really want this car done and I just don't have time.

Been thinking about the chrome powdercoat look since latey, but that's for when i get another cam cover.

Installed some Toy coil on plugs today & clean up the external wastegate cover.

Toyota Coil On Plugs.


Test fitted the bracket for Toy cops.


Could be better but i was limited to a grinder and a drill bit to make the holes for the coils to go through. The best part is the cop's now fit upright without any issues after going back n forth with the grinder.


Assembled.




Installed.



Not bad on my first attempt on doing this type of fabrication.


Now to wire up these Toy cop's.

[DuRWooD]

That's a nice bracket. Everything stay in place nice and securely?

Thanks Durwood. Yes everything is nice n secure. I placed 2 offset slots in the circles for the cops on the bracket to allow the cop's tabs to slip through them then twist and lock. I then placed the rubber insulators for the individual coils that originally fits in the place where the bracket now resides between the bracket and cam cover plug holes, but i forgot to take pix of them before installing cops & bracket.

Great job mazkam! You remind me that I need to overhaul my B6T ignition system because I feel that its not 100% right now :-/
