Longest 2 weeks ever (PAN IS TAPPED Pics Inside!!)
So 2 weekends ago I finally find a local guy with a 1/2npt tap i can borrow, next day I leave for 2weeks 16hrs north into the dam arctic circle practiclly.
Finally back and tapping the pan tom, weather is supposed to b nice at 0*C (compared to the dam snow and -30 I had the whole time I was up there)
Also dropping off my downpipe tonite to get the turbo flange put on...
When the snow is gone the miata will b driving
Well I did it (finally). Wasn't hard at all really, lots of filings though, took prolly half an hour or so. I had my technical consultant on hand to direct me too
I seriously did do some of the tapping myself though :gay: The drilling was done by me atleast,
Followed braineacks advise for location (atleast as much as I could remember)
Pretty happy how it turned out, seems quite strong even though its only 2threads or so.
