Plastic that looks like expanded metal would be very good for your project, although I'm not sure where to find it.

I can buy a number of vented fenders. Here's an Acerbis vented fender. http://a248.e.akamai.net/origin-cdn....13650227-2.jpg Here's a Polisport vented fender. http://www.rockymountainatvmc.com/im...1288600001.jpg However, I really want to cut air holes in the stock fender. If I screw up, I can always buy another fender. ;) Also, this afternoon I just got the front fender shimmed properly to clear the oil cooler, so I don't want to repeat this process all over again with another fender. ;) Spud :) |
Nice job..
I have made a cooler for my XT getting it on is a winter job.. The Xt is dry sump so I will pumb it into the return line back to the oil tank in the frame.. http://img600.imageshack.us/img600/7246/ssa41851.jpg By petenz at 2012-03-29 |
pete, that's really cool! Where did you find a heat exchanger like that?
|
Thank you, Pete. :) I am using the same plumbing method as you. ;) The oil pump will feed oil into the bottom line of my oil cooler. After the oil exits the top of my oil cooler, it will flow into the oil reservoir in the frame. I plan to install a digital temperature gauge in the oil line before it feeds into the oil cooler, so I can monitor the oil temperature directly after the oil exits the engine. ;)

2 peices of 40mm solid 200mm long.. bored a 6.5mm hole though them then put the fins in with a 3mm parting tool leaveing a 12mm dia section up the centre 14mm deep fins..then mill flats on so they can fit togeather |
You've got skills! Did you make that on a milling machine? I can see the fitting that joins the two reservoirs; does fluid fill one cylinder and then dump into the other?

oil goes in one section flows across though the brass nipple into the other sction then out... It was only going to be one section but I had the room so made a second section in the end.. I have a lathe & mill in my home shop.. http://img822.imageshack.us/img822/5915/ssa41854.jpg By petenz at 2012-03-29 |
I found some plastic, 1/8" mesh at the following website. :)
http://www.countryporch.com/darice/view.asp?item=33400 What size mesh do you guys think I should get? Perhaps 1/4" mesh is less likely to clog with mud? Spud :) |
