How much aluminium?
I was recently going through my parts list for my cobra and i was amazed at the amount of aluminium we are using. What about some of you guys? Here is a list that I could think of!
Aluminium heads " water pump " belt drive pulleys " diff housing " dashboard " side intrusion bars " steering wheel boss " halibrands " radiator " oil cooler " fuel injection setup " quick jacks " fuel tank " gearshift bracket " raydot mirrors " number plates " rocker covers " flywheel " glovebox lid Im sure there is more but that is all i can think of at the moment. At least if I crash it I will get good money from the metal recyclers! |
Interesting!
.......but do you REALLY use aluminum side intrusion bars? %/ |
Normally they are steel, but recently one of our guys took his car to the engineer who said that his intrusion bars were too big! They only need to be 1inch square and his were 2x1 so he had to build them again. We have used 1 1/4 aluminium.
