Let No Stone Go Unturned For Humpty Dumpty

The second to last part of the electrical system.

Nice! Starter motor? Alternator?

Thanks!

Close but not enough!

Wow...you are making me drool now. Oil cooler motor and fan?

Are the blades spaced uneven?

It must be the fan motor. Nothing but the best!! Robert, you need to dish the heads of the mounting fasteners, further extracting every bit of weight possible

WOW I did not know that CF fans even existed. Hope the gelcoat is thick! My OEM aluminium fan was beat up so much that the paint was chipped on the opposite side. Thats svelte!

They dont exist until Robert creates them! Did a search on this Humpty Dumpty car the other day. Impresive array of unique unobtanium custom-designed parts.

No gel coat on that piece, at least I would hope not

Fan blade asymmetry, from what I know about it, reduces the likelyhood of vibration.

By gelcoat I meant epoxy. Im assuming that its standard CF construction. I guess if you are putting something like that on, you dont care about long term durability.

I always thought hard anodized aluminum (read - more durable than OEM) would be cool and you could do different colors!

Progress.
