In the process
of saving weight, the heater has been removed.
This should save around 3kg. I have not even switched
it on all year, and to be honest, it doesn't do
a lot with the Brooklands on anyway, so it is
wasted weight.
With some 1mm Aluminium sheet that I bought cheap,
Brent very kindly cut out a 360mm x 332mm rectangle
for me. I then measured off a 207mm line and bent
the sheet to form an 'L' shape. This was done
using a 12" steel rule as a nice sharp edge
and a peice of scrap wood which I could hit with
a rubber mallet.
The heaters riv-nuts will be used to hold it down
and I will run a small silicone bead around it
to seal off the engine bay. |

I got bored of waiting for Yoko 032's to wear
out so I decided it was time for some fresh, sticky
rubber. A great decision. |
