I am thinking of trying to make my own Nitrous Bracket. I was planning to do it in aluminum like I did for the throttle body spacer.

Metal is here :) I just laid out my cut lines. I will be able to get started tomorrow if not tonight.

How's about some wire looms for MSD's?
I spoke with fstjack about the wire looms. Seems someone already makes them. He also warned me about using metal for the loom material. Seems that if there is a weak spot in the protective sheath, it will arc out. I may have to look into making them out of phenolic instead.
 
That looks sharp Dale. How do you plan on keeping the bottles in place?

Nah. Just oversize the slots in the looms and use a high-temp dielectric insert around the wires. I have a good design in mind. Let me know if you want to co-develop some.;)

I am going to line the bracket with rubber liner.

Sure sounds good. Can you give me the dimensions of the insert? I will do a quick CAD based on those dimensions and shoot it over to you.

Gotta find/make the inserts first.;)

I guess we have a project on our hands then :) What is the diameter of the MSD wires? Mine are still out of state, so I can not dimension them :(

Wish I would have known you were making these this way Dale. Could have saved you some time and cut them on my plasma table and been perfect;)

They still look awesome though:rock:

Now you tell me! :)
What kind of a edge does the Plasma Table Leave?

If it turns out nice, I may have a few more to make for some folks.

Thank you for the offer, as I may seek to take you up on it in the future.
