lol... I hate it when I start making lists like that and they keep going and going and going... :waveflag:
Interior looks good, keep on plugging along and you'll be done soon at the rate you work. |

I really didn't want to work on the trunk today, so I started on my crank pulley instead.
I had a V-belt on it before with just an alternator. To use the Turbo Buick power steering pump, I had to switch to a 6 rib belt. I could only find one place that made a 1" mandrel driven 6" 6 rib belt. It wasn't exactly what I wanted and they think a lot of them, so I figured I would just make it myself. http://i112.photobucket.com/albums/n...ps857736db.jpg I have a piece of 1" x 6" flat bar that will work. If I had a 6" round piece that might have been better, but I used what I had. http://i112.photobucket.com/albums/n...ps51e4b720.jpg First bore the 1" ID in it, so I can fixture there and build off that centerline. Drilled it 7/8" and then bored to size with a boring bar. http://i112.photobucket.com/albums/n...ps6305ac32.jpg http://i112.photobucket.com/albums/n...ps1977531f.jpg The I found a piece of 1.5" scrap to build a mandrel out of. http://i112.photobucket.com/albums/n...ps69fc15e6.jpg I roughted out the OD in the bandsaw and mill and started turning. http://i112.photobucket.com/albums/n...psbabee94c.jpg Finshed to size. 6.000" OD. http://i112.photobucket.com/albums/n...ps7fb4541d.jpg |
I found K sized serpentine belt dimensions online. They use a 40* angle, so I had to grind my own cutter.
http://i112.photobucket.com/albums/n...psc74c28f0.jpg Then I cut the grooves. This was a little nerve racking because that's a lot of chip load on a really thin (brittle) carbide tool. http://i112.photobucket.com/albums/n...psc55fd6e0.jpg |
That's just showing off... :military:

Very unique, good looking car, can't wait to see it on the road.
You have some great fab skills. |
Very nice, Mike!
|
Crazy skills! Let's see an overall view, Mike. I want to see what you did with the front face. Does it press on, or is it keyed, or what?
|
Wow nice!

It will be keyed (1" shaft w/ 1/8" key), but I don't have a 1/8" broach right now. I'm going to see if one of the local shops I use for work has one, if not I'll buy one. |
