    very interested in seeing that, especially the mold making, the sand used, and how you heat up the metal to melting point at home. i was toying with the idea of casting a bp26 manifold with a t3 flange but i dont have the proper tools for such a thing.

    @Rocketman
    Thanks for all the info you shared with me at Ohiostiva. I am still saving my pennys for that blank check I need to give you to develop the tranny
    No problem! I look forward to that blank check, lol!

    Rocketman Carb Adapter

    I'm nearing completion of my tooling for my carbdapters, I should have one cast within the next week. What size are the studs generally used on the Weber side?

    Is there anyone in my area willing to come to my shop for an afternoon to test fitment of one of these? You'll get to keep it

    Here are my patterns that I've got so far. Festy flange on one side, 32/36 on the other. Could drill & tap it for an Escort carb as well if someone gave me the measurements.




    More soon. -Rocket
