the thread taps arrived today, too late to get out and cut the threads though. we'll get that done tomorrow along with some countersunk holes in the plate and through the top of the tunnel ram so we can attach it.

edit, i also ordered a nice shiny centre/horn push for my nice shiny steering wheel.  ;D

i took delivery of a 4" length of 4" internal diameter stainless tube today. i intend to make an adjustable tapered piston ring compressor to make future engine builds a little easier.

today we tapped the stud holes in the ally plate and loctited the studs in place. next it's neatening the edges/corners and drill/countersink it to bolt it to the tunnel ram.
