Finished off the cowl mod for the Ram air today. (minus the polished indusction ring to come later). Used Metal Galze to build up |
|
some of the low areas affected by the 'bumps' and then sanded everything smooth/flush. Also sanded out the runs from |
|
yesterdays priming wi primer that was too thin. It's difficult to get the consistency of the primer just right, too thick and it clogs up |
|
and won't shoot, too thin and it runs with the lightest application. Anyway put about 6 oz of smooth prime back on the cowl, 4 |
|
seperate applications, some sanding in between. then when all dry. sanded w/150, then 220 then 320 grit. I bought a soft rubber |
|
'funnel ring' from Checker auto, they are made by Specter inductries and sold as 'reducers' for diy induction systems. this one is |
|
a 4" down to 3". I clamped the 3" to the Ram air canister, I will put a 3"-3" coupler on the machined induction ring when it arrives |
|
and it should 'snug up' against the larder one. If its too small, There's a 3"-3 1/2" reducer than I can try also. These are fairly |
|
pliable and shoule make installing and removing the cowl easier. |
