unfortunatley not Andrew lol

that really needs to be laser cut, then CNC milled from the look of it - though im tempted to get the file for the 1uz to T56 file and see what their machining options are, i do have contacts for all this stuff now.

even if the laser cutters did the main work then etched the surface for the milling part you could spend some time doing it manually on a mill.

Sounds like it would take forever on a manual mill!!!!

aaaannndddd 1 more request.....

Because I cant find one anywhere

is it possible to make a dump pipe flange for me?....its #13

[Craved]

haha yeah thats easy man - what distance do you want between the centre hole and the outside edge? also what holes sizes? want a bolt through or to stud it?

[zebra]

The turbo has bolts atm, would like to keep that if possible....as for the dimensions to the outside...it doesn't really matter, but I would like the center hole for the pipe to suit 3" mild steel pipe rather than 81mm

[Craved]

making me change things hey lol

[Craved]

I would leave it at 81 - then you can slide the 3 inch pipe inside the flange opening.

[zebra]

yeah fair enough

now....how much is it?

pm me if you like

[Craved]

one miiiiiilllllion dollars mwahahahhahaha

haha i dont know mate, 6mm plate be fine as its a dump pipe flange?

and its a 10mm hole atm

Chris, go to 10mm plate is what i've been advised by all the exhaust guys.

They see warping issues after use with 5/6mm stuff.

As for gearbox adapters, why the T56? It's a clunky as f**k gearbox. If I could have easily, I would have avoided using it altogether with my LS1 and stuck with the 5Speed.

If you've got a Toyota engine, get the V160 Box.

just did some measuring on matt's old dump pipe (same flange) it is 12mm from the centre hole to the edge and 10mm bolt holes.

Did notice though that his piping is 76mm OD...so not sure what to do there as I think 81mm will be too loose?

V160 = $4500-5000 2nd hand

T56 $1500 2nd hand

[Craved]

i'll drop it to 78mm then? and adjust the rest to match your specs

and yeah 6 speed for the price and getting the hydrolic clutch makes it easier to use the auto bell housing

[zebra]

sweet as.

lets get it done

[Craved]

redrawn, will cut it out on monday for ya

[zebra]

sweet

Chris

If I ever feel rich...would you be able to do one of these?

http://www.ebay.com....=item2eaded1639

i bought the 1uz one yesterday - turns out its 3 pieces for the 1uz and they recommend steel - so i'll be cutting it out next week

lucky we have some 12mm plate lying around

[zebra]

Do show how it turns out. And what rough costs (retail) of what the adaptor + bits would cost

I wonder who would do a flywheel and clutch for it?

[Craved]

i'll definitely show it once its done, as for clutch i can just get SBC to make one for me to suit

[zebra]

I guess you would just buy an ls1 clutch and have a flywheel made to suit

[Craved]

yeah exactly

hardest part is going to be welding the pieces together without the 12mm plate warping - might have to bolt it up to the bell housing and weld it bolted up and low heat as its under compression so doesnt have to be a strong weld.
