1970 Coronet Super Bee a.k.a Project Plan Bee

[SuperB70]

Intake build continues.

Pieces are made, beveled then after preheat oven welded. Was heavy to lift to oven, complete jig and all...
Those angles are so that I've place to mount injectors and fuel rails. As was in my CAD (Cardboard Aided Design)
Not gonna weld bungs on it. Just mill spec bore for them.
Never mind the finish of those welds. There is 3 passes.
Main thing is that its over the surface and penetrated.
All will be machined smooth.
Made top plate, first, will not be final one. I can tell you that.

Then we arrive point of my life when I got job at trade school machine shop foreman so now I got tools, a lot of machining machines and full welding shop other side of the hall... You will see that also..

At summer holiday, I reassembled the engine to manual milling machine table and let the chips fly..

Back to this, after talked with Swedes again. Desided that I need to make risers to make room for air. So I machined them. made a step joint so I can be sure they don't move or leak. milled o-ring groove and holes for allen bolts on it.

Next will make mounting face and - plate for the supercharger to be bolted to intake.
