Unfourtunetly no progress with the m-series plate. I gotta be a bolt pattern first. I think the only way I could figure it out is with the bell housing cut away if you can send it to me when you get back if that's not to late for you!

Well so far Sideways does not matter. Keep up the good work. And an explanation of some pictures would greatly help.

Got to run and mess with Toilet Water. .

And I thought I was relentless. I am pretty sure Gaines is asleep right now due to his night job. But I spoke with him earlier today and he informed me he might know tomorrow. As they will not know how much till they have completed a couple. But do not worry your name will be on one if you should wish.

As a side note he also informed me that he may pre drill them and tap them to 1/8th NPT with a plug provided so if anyone should wish they can also use the adapter for there EGT probe.

And the Sloan Valve is fixed.

Don't feel too bad. Last night I got distracted (by those who will not be named when she came home from work) just before I started welding the second to last operation on my turbo adapter, When I got back to it I clocked it 90 deg wrong. that was pretty much the half day I did get in the shop shot to $h%T. I can use the adapter, but it looks like crap with the EGT probe coming out in the complete wrong direction. I have not decided if I am going to make a new one or just suffer the consequences for my loss of concentration. I will hate it if I have to look at that thing every time I open the hood. probably will make a new one.
if you are putting a price on yours, think about the fact that on a manual machine it took a good half day to make, and that is being very optimistic, as I had the bottom flange already done.
yours look very very nice. I wanted to make mine out of a solid pieces of 1" or 1.25 plate, But that would mean a trip to town, and a lot of machine work on my tired old equipment.
I will ask again. how many cutters to make your CNC flange? what bores the big hole?
I switched from a cobalt boring bar to a carbide tipped bar, and the carbide did not last a week in the steel. I had had that cobalt bar for a very very long time. New cobalt 1/2" boring bar $55 delivered. Now I am too afraid to use my new cutter
About 8 years ago I had a chance to buy a Supermax CNC mill They sold 4 of them for under $1000 each. I had just bought my mill , so I did not get one. I really regret that.

Gaines, I'm new here but what type of machine are you running? What do you use to program? I run a cnc shop with all Haas machines.
