no thank you ... oil doesnt look that pretty ..

Lastgsr

has it been tested?

RenoRacing

nope, just made it a few minutes ago. I cant see why it wont work though, little nylon tape and it'll be set, definately wont strip or anything, tuff stuff.

Its an easy way to check and see if your oil is dirty yet!

are the 2 bolts through it just for mounting?

RenoRacing

exactly. That's one thing i've noticed on alot of peoples home made ones; zipties hold them on. I'm going to make a vaccum distribution manifold that matches tomorrow.

tegasaurus

didn't you already make it?

how does acrilic hold up to heat and oil, will it turn y ellow, etcc etcc, also even though you added holes fot a nut and bolt combo itll still be pretty hard to bolt it up to anything such as a firewall and what not unless you want to go through the hassle of drilling through the fire wall and adding a nut and bolt on both sides, this will require 2 people. plus it seems like a pain in the *** .. congrats on making somethign, i know i love making **** ( i just made a 3 point strut bar for my car).

Acrylic softens under heat. So when you run hot oil through acrylic plastic, you will most likely have an oil leak between the threads. Let's not forget your acrylic block will be under good amount of oil pressure.
And who knows what kind of chemical reaction will be present when you mix acrylic with oil....hmmm....

Looks pretty but considering crack propagation in Acrylic material add some sharp angle cuts then apply heat and pressure. No thanks. Still pretty though
