    I needed to get rid of that old nasty coolant reservoir and looked at this one to match the the other tank after powder-coating.

    I had got this ebay one before, It is really well made and finished nicely and is same price or cheaper then a new stock tank. (I would like to see a sensor bung but oh well) The issue I had with it is it didn't fit with the brackets the way they were. I contacted them and they wanted pics of the stock one vs theirs but doesn't look like it ever got redesigned 8^(

    So I bought another one and just made it fit, the lower bracket is just not even close to correct so after some cutting and bending in the end fits well.





    I have seen these clamps before and thought I would try them on the ICV and hose splice (not shrunk yet)





    Getting there, still need to mount up the small radiator and SC drain and some p-clamps here and there. That tank is just too shiny and needs to be powder-coated 8^)

        Well that just sucks 8^(

        Like just the last set posted or all of them? On one of the site updates I couldn't attach pics so I started sharing and linking them but maybe that isn't working

            I think I found it, Google Drive changed its sharing default and you have to select a different option on each share

              Yes it is working now, interesting setup! I'd like to see SC M20s become a thing.

                        Haven't got much done with everything going on but did work on the clutch project. I was going to find someone to machine the flywheel for me and figured it wasn't complicated and I would invest it in a machine for myself and do projects 8^)

                        Picked up a HF bench mill, they are a re-branded Sieg X2 and not a bad machine for the price, about the same a drill press and hopefully a bit more accurate!

                        Blank button flywheel needing holes



                        I 3D printed a drill template and centered on a tight fitting socket to rotate on,



                        Chamfer the holes



                        Centered for the center hole



                        Drag out the new boring head



                        Having at it (sharpie doesn't like WD40)



                        Final pass



                        Give it a chamfer



                        Looking like it is ready to give it a go



                        Flex plate and spacer



                        Spacer needs a little thinning by 2mm



                        And all bolted up nicely



                        In all its glory and with APRs 8^)



                        Next up it's big brother

                            Thread resurrection for parts confirmation. Will the M52 water pump pully and alternator pulley fit on an M20 water pump and alternator?
