Fits Acrylic Dtek Tops work log

Been there. Done that. :o

I like the chunky Ice Cube look it has regardless of what it does. It's a cool mod to an already solid performing WB. And to answer a question about compression fittings I found that I could not fit two 3/8 Koolance fittings side by side. Someone would have to make a facetted top and port it at angles to get fittings on there. So 45 degree swivels are indeed the only work around other than a combobulation of M-M/F-F to extend the 2nd fitting.

I wish I had another FuZion after seeing this top. It's really first rate. I'm diggin' the gold "bling" screws, too

Too bad no one in the U.S. makes a I7 hold down bracket for it. I know Duniek makes some, but I don't want to wait weeks to get them. Anyway, very, very, very nice work Fitseries, you have some mad skills. I am assuming it uses the rubber 0-ring from the original block? Also, what are the lowest temps that the acrylic will take? I.E. -20c? Thanks, makes me want to get another D-Tek block. Maybe I will.

idk that acrylic has a problem going with low water temps. i would think it would get brittle at some point but maybe not.

they use the stock oring from the dtek top yes.

dude you live within driving distance of one of the best custom builders on this forum, and your complaining about a bracket?

**Utnorris** · 01-30-2009, 11:13 PM

No doubt, but dude, he is busy and I hate to ask for more since he is already hooking me up.

i need some ppl to take some of these off my hands. my FS thread keeps getting deleted though. hmmm....

**Sadasius** · 02-02-2009, 09:28 AM

These been tested yet with some data to compare to the stock tops? Interested if it does improve but not interested if it does not help and especially if it's worse.

**Fitseries3** · 02-02-2009, 07:06 PM

happy owner sent me this...

**warriorpoet** · 02-03-2009, 07:42 PM

Yeah man, it's ridiculously nice. You did a fantastic job on them.

1366 mount that works with my tops...

keep in mind this is a prototype. hand made to work.. not to look pretty. i'll get the CAM model going soon and machine a few up.

**eXa** · 02-10-2009, 06:46 PM

Hmm looks nice. Have any of u noticed any reduction in noice with theese tops vs the standard one? well... maybe i have to ask if u noticed the noice in the first place... Well, anyone?
Also, there would be no bow with this top right?

**Boogerlad** · 02-10-2009, 06:51 PM

that looks nice.

once the air is out(matter of a second or 2 on the first run of the loop) its near silent. i know the stock dtek v1 top sometimes gets noisy when air gets trapped inside. i've run the red nozzle's in my tops and its still silent.

my base is pre bowed and so far has retained its shape.

**Chicken Patty** · 02-10-2009, 07:08 PM

susbscribed! makes me want to buy one of these blocks, purchase your top if you have any left and then get one of your mounts

**Fitseries3** · 02-11-2009, 10:50 AM

polished...

**Fitseries3** · 02-11-2009, 10:51 AM

pics dont show the sweetness that this is...

**~~ILikeCosmosS~~** · 02-11-2009, 02:52 PM

did use a buffing wheel or cotton wheel to polish?

Nah im not talking about trapped air. its not silent, i understand most people wont notice it since its not loud.... but its not silent. Thanks for playing tho

**brinox** · 02-25-2009, 08:45 AM

so what versions of the tops are left?

**Fitseries3** · 03-05-2009, 03:45 PM

a few delrins left as well as some dual outlet acrylics

**broken pixel** · 03-13-2009, 09:07 AM

Mine is in the mailbox but I have to wait for my girlfriend to get back so I can get to it.

Great work Fit, speedy delivery. I thought I would share some photos and recommend this top to anyone who has a Fuzion.
