First off I know squat about aluminum, other than it is fairly easy to work/machine and that I can't weld it without making a mess. Will 6061 plate work for the TBI adapter plate? Someone recommended Billet, but I have yet to find any. The cast plate sells for less, but i figure it is not any good for this application.
Secondly I figure I need a 6x5 inch piece? How big was everyone elses? Rough measurement?
There is about 1 1/2 difference in air cleaner flange height from the TBI to the carb so I thought I would go with 3/4 or 1 inch plate. Any yes or no's.
What is the options for air cleaners, will my choice in adapter plate thickness come back and kick me in the butt when I go to look for an a/c assy?
I found aluminum pieces on e-bay (dah) for sale and thought I would go that route as to bumming a piece from someone. Thanks for the offers guys!!!!
Sorry for all the questions.
Maybe I can document my adapter build and help out with that part on the info page? Bill your probly on top of this already, but thought I would offer anyway.
