That's some great work and research so far=) We have a Niton XRF Analyzer at work as well. Which model do you guys have? They're awesome pieces of equipment

[TehRaydarlover]

Thanks, not sure what model it is, I can check on monday.

This is awesome stuff! I'll have plenty of questions for you when I get to this point on my iX. Very interested in how your mudflap project works out.

[TehRaydarlover]

Anytime! Depending on where your located, if you ever need help working on it hit me up.

[Rowleym]

So is this all done to simply increase the strength of the front diff?

Awesome project, and I like that analyzer.

I'm sure you know this, but I would hope you check what kind of tool steel that is? I'm not even sure what it's doing so I can't really comment on how strong it needs to be.

[TehRaydarlover]

Yeah that's the goal, should be able to handle pretty much everything I can throw at it when its done. Yeah I was going to shoot it just for fun. I don't think it will see a huge load its mainly just holding the shaft the spider gears ride on. I figured if it is some sort of tool steel it should be nice and hard and hopefully help keep the shafts aligned correctly.

Put in my LED fog lights and high beams. Quite the improvement in visibility with the LEDs vs. halogens:

Before anyone says anything about the pitting, I already have some cerium oxide on the way haha

Just lows:

And lows with LED brights:

Sweet. Whats the lumen rating?

[jc43089]

Details on the bulbs please.

Sent from my potato phone

[TehRaydarlover]

The fogs are 1600LM per bulb, 5000k and the highs are 1800LM per bulb, 6000k. There is a guy on r3v that sells the kits. Picked them up during his black Friday sale.

[DrLeadFoot]

I like the fogs! Might have to go this route also.

[YoungCR]

Link to the kits please.

I dont even see a post showing any fogs

Fog must be too thick to see?

Thanks to Rowleym for the m20 block, coffee table coming along nicely:

Here's an interesting shot of the location of the main oil galley (cylinder wall on the right)

That is incredible! You need a 200 head to replace that 885 with. keep the 885 alive!

I say LED mood lights in place of the spark plugs

[TehRaydarlover]

Head is cracked so nbd, also going to put in a full valvetrain. Defiantly putting light in the spark plug holes. Will make perfect lighting for the pistons and valves, and the wires will be hidden on the back side of the block, win win.

[Earl]

Will you be getting megasquirt to run the lighting? =P I think a starter motor rigged up would be cool to spin it all

[B C]

Use a stock plug wire loom and have a hollowed out coil containing a battery pack for a dc power source

Id like to see pics of the crack on the head

[TehRaydarlover]

might go a little fast with a starter motor hooked up haha.
