e38 here, I have 3x 1 in the Tonner 1 in the Lexcen and 1 spare just in case I brick one 

The Tonner is a 5.7L that thinks it’s an L98..

that’s brillant

Yeah seems to work well, just changed all the sensors using the L98 injectors and tune, calibration is fairly close.

Jealous of that drill mill mate, one of them is on my list…

[Judge1 FrazerParticipant new zealand1983 VB LSA MG9 6060 6 speed View build HERE Member since: February 5, 2016 Posts: 775]

Yeah Gary it’s been on mine list for a while still haven’t used it yet next is a lathe but need to build my  next house first , plans for it has a 100sqm workshop

The first decent machine I got was my lathe, couldn’t do without it, it’s not the largest out there, but the reality is don’t screw cut or turn large parts, but its invaluable for alot of jobs.  But a drill mill is on the list for sure.

It certainly is Gary looking at the motor next so should be sometime next year , also got the mill all set to go

going to have a crack at milling some lower blocks for a mates ute

Just remember milling machines bite

 

[Judge1 FrazerParticipant new zealand1983 VB LSA MG9 6060 6 speed View build HERE Member since: February 5, 2016 Posts: 775]

Cheers Gary I’ll take that on board as I have never used one  , I think just not taking too much off at once ,

would you know, is the drill head parallel to the table even if the table is not level ( the table is level ) just asking

to figure out how I mount the material I am milling

An alternative to the housing swap is this

I am not “Mr Mill” but there is a little more to it than using a lathe, or just taking fine cuts.  The rotation of the cutter when it enters the workpiece for example has an effect.  Might be worth a bit of YouTube work

[Anonymous View build HERE Member since: January 1, 1970 Posts: 0]

There’s a fine art in “Tramming” the head as well ;)
