Lil John. I Know there has been a lot of negativity from hot rodders over billet parts. But you cant deny that the late Lil john was an innovator, a craftsmen, and built some awesome street and race cars. If you don't agree just read the article attached. |
Started with 3 pieces of 6061. |
Turned the I/D and O/D, then cut threads in booth ends. The top and bottom are going to thread on with o rings to seal. |
Threaded the bottom cap on and shaped it etch and sketch style on the lathe. Then used a hand grinder with a flap wheel to clean up. No CNC here all done on manual machines |
Put the inlet hole in on my dads mill, and then proceeded to cut the cooling fins. |
Guess this is why people get so down on Billet parts. There is a lot of material left on the floor. My man Charles the scraper will be pleased. |
This is were it was at when I ran out of film. |
