Actually, catch can was bought used as a base, instead of making from scratch. Raw T6 blank stock that size is expensive. I made mod to the internal to enhance functionality:SpeedHoles wrote:Very nice catch can there! Is that what you were referring to as homemade? Maybe the polished valve covers as well...
I have the same LSX-R intake. I have a custom red molded one on one of my engines. A mutual friend owns the company who does the injection molding for Comp Cams.
Also have a Hotckis front & rear anti-sway kit on my lowered Silverado. Nice pieces.
No need to justify your modifications, I say go for it and keep it up!!! Love it.
I was just simply commenting on your statement of factory produced items not being collectible.
Added fins on external to aid condensation, made heat sink fitting to encourage pre-cool incoming blow by, homemade G10 bracket to isolate direct heat conduction and....:
Coils were relocated with homemade brackets to eliminate direct heat conduction, original holes for coil mounting brackets on valve covers were plugged, then valve covers got the mirror polish treatment:
Being a fairly addicted tinkerer, the list goes on......I leave it at that! :o
Back on subject, I have decided to add a chamfer onto the second bump on the Yojimo. Chamfers provide an optical illusion of a slimmer blade profile under certain light condition. But in reality, in front of a darken background, profile of bumps remain.
I will post pictures when done!
Aloha!
