Assembly & Test

Assembling and testing the setup on the car.

 

 

New gaskets were made for the bodies. The standard Toyota gaskets are coated steel and very high quality but they are designed to be located by dowels on the stock manifold. I made up some new ones with 0.4mm gasket paper, cutting them out with a scalpel. The holes were punched out with the aid of a punch set.

With the bodies now assembled, it was time to adjust the throttle linkages.
