u2u'ed

Both reserved for evostew and stegough

Thanks

payment sent.

Got it mate thanks

PS. Why the sad face they are a good price arent they??

sad face is because I'm parting with money!!!

LOL,

Evostew now paid too so both sold

Thanks

was tempted, but i can't work out how i would have mounted it to my car lol
too late now anyway

maybe the ones I sold the other day would have been better for you...

If I ever get anymore I will let you know..

Yodi

i was going to ask if you made them or not, i would definately be interested at that price. what size are the outlets?

No I dont make them mate

Not sure on the outlets, they are boxed now so not taking them apart again but i will measure up any more I get.

Thanks, Yodi

ok cool, do you get them from a supplier of some sort, like to order, or do you just get get them fall in your lap so to speak?

They fall in to my lap,

basically when they are removed from service as serviceable I get to take them.

Just being honest, so I charge what I think is a fair price (£15 as £5 is on post) and sell them

I've had 5 and they all sold here

Can't tell you what they're off, and you wouldn't believe me anyway lol (yep, you really wouldn't)

here are the last 2 I had would prob suit you better, if I ever get more Ill let you know.

Yodi

tanks? or jet fighters?!

yeah, those last ones would have been good. still wouldn't have been the easiest to fit, but there's ways around that

do header tanks have to be highest in the system? or are they not too worried about that?

Preferred to be high but in all honesty they are a sealed pressurised system so I dont actually know why, however i would still keep it higher up

i could always try it on the spare bracket i've already got, and then move it if it needs to. i guess if its not hight up you end up with an air lock somewhere else, like the cylinder head or radiator?

Quite possibly, the header tank acts as a swirl pot so a good reason.

When one of the guys that bought the style that may suit you get them ask them to measure for you ??

The posted in my other for sale thread, I think its called bits and pieces but its by my username and recent so should be on page 1 still.

here's my engine bay


there's points to put a strut brace, i might just bolt some kind of bracket to that.

measuring would be great thanks

My tank just arrived, many thanks YODI
Dimensions:
Dia. 100mm
length. 150mm(body) 220mm inc. fittings
Bottom barb 15mm, top barb (banjo) 8mm.
Comments: very well made, the cylinder is billet alloy machined from alloy tube, with superb TIG welding.
Mounting should be a doddle, 3 internally threaded TIG welded studs + 2 small angled brackets.
I am guessing Aerospace, and sticking my neck out, DIESEL Aero Engine

evostew,
how did you manage to post your reply at 12:57 on the 25th (today) when it is only 12:06 now?

Have you got a time machine or is locostbuilders still on British summer time?

Haven't got my tank yet, BTW.

Regards, Steve.

yep, locostbuilders are on BST !

Hey! Fozzie, the clocks went back last month!

Regards, Steve.

Steve its 100% gone mate although only posted yesterday, lets see what happens tomorrow..

I wasn't getting at you, Yodi - though my post guys are always much slower than any others, I was pointing out locostbuilders' clocks hadn't been put back!

Told you my postal service was crepe! Arrived today - very pleased with it - will probably fit it before July !

Cheers, Steve.
