Back to drawing board
Well, not so much work for the last month or more. Finally, found some time last night. I found a really nice, almost virtually rust free battery tray and I bead blasted it and painted it. Not the best investment in time, but I got to do some restoration. Nice and dry this AM. Also, got my new 50 Plate HE in and it's time for my 3rd WVO system. This time, I have worked out all 4 major issues in any WVO system and I am thinking this will be the last version. Greazzer 3.0 so to speak. I am hoping to find "some" time this weekend to relocate my battery to the trunk and at least mount the new battery tray with HE. This beast should capture most of the engine's free BTUs of heat and keep the WVO at a nice 180F. It holds over a quart. Just looking now for a suitable thermal blanket. I used to have a big piece of UH-1 helicopter thermal blanket material but I guess that got lost in the shufflle over the years. Any one out there with something like this? I need about 4 square feet, give or take. The HE measures 12"x5"x 6"

A New Toy
I picked up the AVL Bund 875 Diesel Fuel Injection Timer / Gun. Very very pleased so far. I need to source the missing cable. This way, I can exactly time the IP without using the drip method or any other method, and I understand this is perhaps the most exact method to time the IP. I also need to translate the owners manual -- it's in German
![]() I owe some pictures. Updates thus far: 1. EURO Front and Rear Bumpers 2. Rear Mud Flaps 3. New Oil Pan which was really needed to fix the dip stick tube-- what a PITA! 4. Interior upgrades Almost ready to wrap up: 1. Electric Water Pump 2. Finalized Greazzer 3.0 WVO system 3. NON-EGR manifolds; painted and modified-- Very happy with this, and my California air box. 4. Euro Rear Headrests In the next month or so: Installation of RollGuys A/C Sanden Compressor System. Got the entire sha-bang from Secondaries. Brutal heat coming this way by June 1st ... so time for the R-12 (got my 608 license) and time to chill.... Then, time for some serious restoration before the brutal heat sets in -- 1. SOUND PROOFING 2. Interior Dye Time ![]() |
