    Inlet on one end, three down the side, plus one on the other end. Had one made like that out of aluminum hex back in the '60s.
     
  14. Na actually this is for the 3-2 manifold, I will make up another for the 4-2 as the spacing is different on the attachment points, just a glutton for punishment I guess..................

    WOW, nice job! I just spent a whole bunch of time reading this thread. Impressive skills.
    One comment, and it is regarding the grinder mount on your lathe/mill. Make sure you clean the ways very well of any grinder dust, as it will wear the ways about 100 times faster. After having to have the ways ground on my lathe, I keep it covered up any time I'm using the grinder near it.
     
  22. Test n tune at Famoso next weekend. Wanna come Carl? ;)
     
  23. I'll be at Sac Autorama Tim, that weekend.........
    EbbSpeed yea I know about grinder dust and even grinder splatter on the table doesn't help I will be using a shield from now on........
