Stamping your own louves
Hi all,
Needed some louves in my bonnet so knocked up a stamper and bashed some in.
I simply made a stamp and die out of scrap, cut slots in the bonnet and hit it with a hammer.
I still need to clean the edges etc but its not that hard and very locost .

Mark, that's brilliant.
I've been thinking how best to do this job for a while and I think you've beaten me to it. Can you post pictures and plans etc.... so that
I can copy what you've done?
Thanks
Justin

I also like the way tins of highly flammable liquids are kept right next to the exhaust
