Custom Sheetmetal Enclosures

[boostn0199]

Hi,

Just recently I installed a fuel setup consisting of a surge tank and I needed to make up and enclosure to cover it so I got to work on my project. I ended up making a enclosure for it out of sheetmetal which has a detachable front panel so you can view or if need work on the fuel system or you can remove the whole enclosure with a few screws. The panels have stiffners on them as to help keep it rigid and overall it is very solid.

If people are interested or might want a custom sheetmetal enclosure made up for a fuel system or whatever it may be I wouldn't mind fabricating something for you. Below are the pics of fuel system , the enclosure without the lid and the full finished product.

Feel free to give some input or any questions you have.

Looks like it will do the job.

Personally I would of made it with a back plate rather than using the tyre well and a fixed bottom plate so it was a complete boxed unit.

What were the prefab panels you used?

It was just scrap hot water system case that i cut up and took what i need. Yeah i didnt want a full box since it doesnt have to be fully sealed to pass scruiteneering and its easier to take apart.
