    The nozzle has been working hard and looks like it died a good death. RIP

    V2 of the mold. Lots of learning from V1 and this one came out much better. Still had to tear up the 3D printed part. Need to figure out how to eject parts from the cavity. The threaded inserts are in stock and enroute to me to make the CF part.

    Maybe I missed it but is the E86 part number 51717026274? Looks like they are $180 each now. I think this might be a good opportunity to do my first carbon tube project.

      That's the one! They were around that price when I started this project as well. Fortunately, they came on every single E85 and E86, so they're not hard to find on eBay (this is how I got mine) or at a junkyard.
