Major League Duning - Frankenrail Buildup, Part 7

	The hard brake lines bend and then attach to -3 teflon lined braided steel hose. A collar and nut was slipped on the hard line and then a 37.5 degree single flare put on the tube to mate with the -3 A/N fitting.
	Between the fan shroud and the gas tank is the MSD 6-AL ignition control. The 6-AL has a rev-limiter that can be adjusted by using different chips. There's a 7000 RPM chip in right now. Under the MSD box is a terminal strip that connects the wires from the engine to the front of the car.
	This is a close up of the accelerator pump arm on the weber 4 IDF. These are pinned into place and occasionally fall out and are lost. Weber no longer produces this part for older carbs, and no aftermarket arms are available. We were told to buy new carburetors when the arm fell out at the dunes. Screw 'em, we'll make our own.
	Since we had one good arm on the other carb, we traced around it on a piece of metal the proper thickness.
	And then cut it out. SInce I am a jeweler by trade, I used a jeweler's saw and a few # 3/0 blades to cut the arm. A few swipes with a small file and you could not tell the one I made from the original. It sure beats buying a new carburetor.
	This is what a jeweler's saw looks like. They can be purchased from a jewelry supply store or even on eBay for less than $20.00. Get one and use it if you ever need to cut a small part with extreme accuracy.
	Mike's got plans to turbocharge the engine next year, so he did not want to spend a ton of cash on a nice silencer for just this season. The idea here is to take a cherry-bomb type exhaust and cut it shorter and weld a plate on the end.
	Stripped of paint and welded to the collector, this cheapy silencer looks pretty good and really takes the edge off the exhaust note.
	Here's the plate that was cut and welded to the cherry-bomb. After each inch or so of welding it was dipped in water to cool it off and prevent the fiberglass from smoking and stinking in the garage. Total cost: $10.00. Sweet deal.

	The running chassis in the driveway!
	It runs and drives! A cage to protect the engine is on the list of things to finish before the first trip in two weeks
	The proud father with is lil' Frankenrail. The three other seats need to be bolted to the car with their respective seatbelts and the car is ready to go! Powdercoat and sidepanels will be added next year.
