Complete list of materials needed!!
Hi
This is my first post The plan 2 zetec, i have mt75 gearbox already from a friend building mk indy 1200 BEC. I am going to try and do everything possible to do it on a very low budget. I an very well honed at megasquirt now and have experince setting up on the rollers so running the zetec on throttle bodies from a bike is where i am heading. I am looking for a list of exactly how much of each size box/tube i need for complete chassis including suspension. I work in an engineering workshop where i have access to just about an saw/welder lathe/milling machine/cnc plasma etc i will need to build. I will do my best to order everything through work which I can then order at cost+10%. Hope to get the material as cheap as possible. So far this looks to be a friendly forum |

Thanks for the welcome.
Thanks for the link... all i can see is the list for the box section. What other tube will I need? Maybe I should get my head stuck into the book and work it out for myself |

Hi Mike
6m of 25mm Dia (1") seamless mechanical grade 2mm wall and 3m of 19mmDia (3/4") seamless mech grade 2mm wall for the suspension.... a lump of 3mm steel i'd guess around 1/2 sq m for chassis plates .... a small chunk of 5mm steel around 1/2 sq m of 1mm steel. Check the book for the rest as I am not that far on my build yet, if your in an engineering shop I guess the scrap bin will furnish you with all you will need.......oh.... welcome and get building. rgds Kev |
