90 DEGREE BILLET ALUMINUM INJECTOR CAPS
- Thread starter ADV
- Start date
Those look great man. What a cool project. Any plans for making T's for turbo'ed IDI's?

Hell'va nice job, looking good. Totally amazing what CNC machines can do. Read the 1st thread on these, where I suggested how to do a coefficient test, looks like a go.
Just curios....thinkin outloud....
Instead of round...would hex be an easier shape to make? You are already leaving flats for the nipples...just curious

The programming software I am using to make these is really cool it's kinda like an auto cad drafting program. If I can draw it out I can machine it. So if it were round or hex machining it would be that same once the program is set it would take just about the same time to make. The 90 degree caps have a little flat where the nipple is and making them hex shaped would look nice so they are more uniform but then there is more DE Burring.

Is getting worn out
Keep up the good work!
I use to de-burr for a living, I would gladly take a raw set. when and if you produce them, the vitons and hose will be on the way, I ran out of labels.

HAMMER DOWN!
would there be any corrosion issues with the diesel fuel contacting the aluminum?

are you going sell these bad boys
Yay! Now I can finally say something!!!! I've been feeling like a kid who knew where "Santa" hid all the Christmas gifts before wrapping them for Christmas day!
Those things are AWESOME looking! They won't get brittle like plastic and will hold up to distortion better. As for corrosion with diesel, consider for a moment the filter head and water separator you have in your engine compartment. OK, don't think of the separator...
Just my opinion, but I think he did a great job. And this is what a true mechanic is; they want a certain part and when they can't find it they make it. And it's not a slopped together job either, but one piece CNC'd units.
In one way or another on Oilburners, everyone is a Maverick. Taking engines that should be obsolete and making them true contenders in the working world through home built innovation.

If you got nothing going on Saturday morning I am going to be working on putting these on my truck
Also was going to put on a new lift pump and a few other little stuff.

Happy IDI'er
I have been watching these as well, thank you for supporting the IDI's and putting your time towards making them better.
I can't wait to see the assembly of these on your engine.
