[QUOTE=Cobraman;586730]A while back I think Mike Bray mentioned that he is using this water pump [URL]https://www.summitracing.com/parts/bra-1650#overview[/URL] it has a driver side inlet and V-belt Hub height is 5.813 this is not compatible with the gillmer belt drive system that I wanted to use so plan B.
So what I'm curious about is what pulleys and belt systems that are being used. I'm changing things around a bit going to simple pully drive system. I am just using altanator water pump just curious as to what others have done with this combination.[/QUOTE] ]]> Cobraman https://v1.thefactoryfiveforum.com/entry.php?1342-Water-pump-altanator-drive-system https://v1.thefactoryfiveforum.com/entry.php?1332-My-brandywine-with-blue-pearl-408-roadster Tue, 24 Dec 2024 02:59:45 GMT [QUOTE=Cobraman;570069]Well last week I managed to get some more done. And I'm in no hurry to get it done, I like the building aspect it brings a sense of accomplishment with each step. I have managed to finish front brake lines it turned out very nice for a first timer. No mistakes all bends took me some time to get them measured and all the angles correct. I used a template from a piece of copper tubing so I could get it close. Then fine tuned it . It really wasn't that bad just take your time and think about every bend before making it. Also finished up some fuel line stuff.Tomorrow rear brake lines.
To many photos so I'm sharing my Google drive link enjoy.
