Okay... here's the pictures I MEANT to post sunday when I was just dog tired and it was hotter than an oven.
Machining the middle plate (Acrylic)...
First dozen jets are cut...
Block used to sand each jet to the same length... (Jet sticking half way out)
Jet in the middle plate... I slightly flared the end that in the Acrylic so the water pressure doesn't push them through.
Here is the infamous broken tap... still working out how to save this baseplate.
Finally... on friday I got my new radiator (heater core) from
www.leakycar.com (Core # 2-302 on
this page)
Modified tubes of the core...
Installed... still need to clean up the box area so it's more properly sealed.
That's it for today... I'm going to try and remove that broken tap tomorrow... wish me luck...
