Right Side Of My 134l

I still have a little more work to do on this side. Like reassemble the distributor (its a Vacuum advance model)

Front Right view:



if its made from Aluminum in these photos except for the Water Neck on the thermostat housing I made it from scratch.

 

A thing of beauty,is a joy forever! Very Nice!

 

In the future is a cast aluminum Intake that will mount a Weber DGV 32/36 progressive 2bbl. and a Tri Y style header for the other side. Manifold is waiting for some TIG welding to be done and I have to wait to design the Header until everything is jammed in the Chassis

 

looks nice

 

Thats a beauty!

 

Impressive!

 

Very nice. I guess maybe I lost track but, weren't asking about performance mods and, if so, did you do any of them?

 

F-Head porn!

Edit: Oops, I mean L-head.

 

Wow!

 

Engine performance thingys

Cool. interested to see some dyne numbers when the time comes, followed by a seat of the pants impression of the power increase. Thanks for posting. Looks great.

 

Who's doing the distributor for you? Local shop or are you sending it off? How did you determine the optimal settings?

I have an IAT 4405 and think about putting it on the Fhead

 

You really know how to shame and inspire fellow L-heads.

 

It slows down the alternator a little at hwy speeds reducing drag. Also increases the contact area for the belt.

 

Well it is an L head.

 

I'm doing the distributor a local shop has an old Sun distributor machine I can use. As to the numbers one of the guys on the CJ-2A pagr had the factory spec's I consider them a starting point. I will need to adjust for the higher Octane fuel and Ethanol in todays gasoline.
