I spent most of yesterday doing bits on the car including final mocking up of the hydroboost to make doubly sure it will fit with enough clearance to valve covers. I've found a company who supply stainless banjo bolts for the high pressure application that are the lowest profile possible, 20mm from sealing surface. This makes everything that much easier and makes it possible to use the Billet CPP dual master I wanted, which has built in proportioning valve etc but it's body is wider than most other aftermarket master cylinders..
The rest of my time in the workshop yesterday was taken up with modifying the toyosports stainless headers.
This is how they arrived a couple of years ago
This is after some work smoothing flush and polishing the weld transition halfway up the left tube which at this stage is almost invisible, although I still need to deal with the big step from the first bend to second at the bottom of the tree. I also removed the centre section of the bolting bar and smoothed and polished the flanges, this was initially for dipstick clearance but it does look a lot better, so it will be done to the other side too.
The important bit, the internals. I used a rotary burr in my long reach die grinder to deburr and shape the inner welds, there were some definite flow interrupters out of the box. After this I changed the burr out for abrasive wheels to smooth the whole inner structure as far as I could, this I forgot to photograph so here it is after the first step deburring.
And bolted up roughly to see the difference
I'll do the other side today and try to finish both completely so I can tick them off the list!
