DuffyMahoney Posted February 1 Author Share Posted February 1 2 hours ago, MONZTER said: In the past when I would bench and smooth out casting lines in parts you would always see the smooth ground areas in contrast to the original casting finish. What I would do is blast it with a heavy 36 grit aluminum oxide to add even texture on the entire part, then Vapor hone it to brighten it up. It looks great, almost as if it were originally cast like that. So something to consider vs just glass bead if you decide to smooth out any of the maching marks and go with a more classic cast look. Got any pictures? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DuffyMahoney Posted February 24 Author Share Posted February 24 ITB update! I got the dog bones/ rods shortened, design and had the cable mount made plus the fuel rail mounts. It’s almost ready to bolt in! I might try some surface finishing on the cnc intake. I don’t love the look of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DuffyMahoney Posted February 27 Author Share Posted February 27 (edited) Finally got the linkage sorted on my ITB. This is without an over head bar return spring (I will add tonight). The system is very smooth and returns strongly. Pretty stoked.; Edited February 27 by DuffyMahoney Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DuffyMahoney Posted March 3 Author Share Posted March 3 I finished the injector wiring. I cheated and used an RB harness and just redid a few of the lengths to be perfect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DuffyMahoney Posted March 4 Author Share Posted March 4 I got my cnc intake and some parts back from media tumbling, it looks almost cast. I am super happy with the finish. Only issue it now shows finger prints. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DuffyMahoney Posted March 6 Author Share Posted March 6 All ITB test fitment is done. Cable mount is perfect, everything is smooth and actuates as good as I hoped. Now time to bolt it down, cut the cable to length and finish some wiring. I lined up the MZR haltech tuner to help me with my tune. It should be interesting to see how good he can get it, especially with my balance bar design and throttle angle. Will the snow melt so I can drive it soon? Probably not. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
