If anyone has a set I really need them, I do not want to use washers.

There $15 a set, brand new.....

Are we talking about the stock Honda bushings or the kit centering bushings?

atank · Post by **atank** » July 12th, 2008, 7:14 am

The kit centering, I am building an AF using a 1999 CR250 frame.

I have them now, and the remaining parts of the kit minus the cooling hose splitter will be done Tuesday. What else do you need?

What does your headstay look like, below is the one I was going to use, if you have asolid one I would like on of those also, I already have the engine mounts welded.

from this:

to this:

plus these (pair, not one):

and this:

and also, a coil mount adapter and the aforementioned swingarm spacer....that makes up a gen. one kit.

Yes I have seen these and they are what I want, I already have the engine mounts, just let me know how much everything else is and your paypal address.

Who did those CAD drawings, and are you using a CAD/CAM machine for these parts?

ShanMan · Post by **ShanMan** » July 13th, 2008, 6:55 am

That would be me. I am a design engineer by profession, so doing this stuff is right in my wheel house. I did the work you see here in SolidWorks, but I have worked with Pro Engineer, CATIA V5 and even old-school AutoCad.

I will be releasing prices for the kits on Tuesday when I get the rest of the parts from my CNC machinist.

AutoCad I remember those days

hey shan, can you tell me how tall that coolant hose adapter is? I might want 1 or 2

ShanMan · Post by **ShanMan** » July 13th, 2008, 12:35 pm

Pleae define "tall" Danny. Thanks.

dannygraves · Post by **dannygraves** » July 13th, 2008, 5:02 pm

how far above the head would it be if the nozzles were touching. so the length of the nozzles that go to the head plus the rest of the thing. damn it, I'm still not making any sense, am I?

ShanMan · Post by **ShanMan** » July 13th, 2008, 5:41 pm

Danny, this setup works best if you run hose from the head fittings out the left side and into the splitter. Then it's more or less a straight shot from the splitter to the rad. Easy peasey!!!

dannygraves · Post by **dannygraves** » July 13th, 2008, 5:48 pm

well, I ask, because I was thinking about using something like that for my gen-4

Looks fun to weld between those fittings. Getting more complex and expensive. Is there enough meat to do a bolt down o-ring system.

teemtrubble · Post by **teemtrubble** » July 13th, 2008, 8:29 pm

Yes it was! I tried 5 or 6 different idea's this was the best so far.

dannygraves · Post by **dannygraves** » July 14th, 2008, 7:51 am

ya mike, those do coem out really nice, but I want to use hoses, so I can do a motor swap with ease.

ShanMan · Post by **ShanMan** » July 14th, 2008, 9:55 am

there is no way I would ever weld that stuff. It is begging to be vacuum brazed...that way you are guarenteed a water tight joint and there is no possibility for warping. Just my .0199 worth.

teemtrubble · Post by **teemtrubble** » July 14th, 2008, 11:02 am

I totally agree Shan so I sent one out for dip braze as well.

ShanMan · Post by **ShanMan** » July 14th, 2008, 12:35 pm

I figured.
