Alright, an update.

Can't wait till the build starts on this. It is going to be pretty cool.

When you think it will move from concept phase to build phase?

Hey, Miller. I'd say in probably another week if I can get some good work in this weekend. The objective was to make some headway on the custom pump mounts tonight which I feel I've done. I still need to design the drive mounts, and after that I'll start to do some cutting.

Here is a the idea I have for the pump mounts. I will either modify the drive cage or build a custom piece to set the pumps on panels and looking through two windows which will be cut vertically, one under the other, for the reservoir tops to show through.







Once the pumps are mounted in the frame, the frame will be joined with a custom bay cover that acts as an overlay.






The cover will slide onto the frame and will be secured with countersunk screws.






After the assembly is secured, it will mount in the drive bay.







The measurements aren't exact yet, but you get the idea. The bay cover will have holes drilled to route the tubing from both radiators/pumps.
