Thanks guys!!
The next thing that crossed my mind was to make a full electronic solenoid valve body, but I think a multi clutch lockup converter will be first.

Had 2 hrs in the shed today between feeding our new born (two weeks today) Lucy Belle Roberts.
Got some data from my v/b before installing it... And yes that is a drill to drive the pump shaft.
Then bolted it in for a test drive.

Haha!!.... I know ;-)
We'll have to workout soon if I can modify your valve body adding a trans brake and extra neutral or I make a new one. I'll email you tomorrow.
With the logging, on this one I used one of my DL-32 innovate units configuring all 5 channels to = ( 0-5v ) and using 0-400 psi sensors. I think
they are around $40au ea with wire connectors.
What innovate are you using??

I have a LMA 2 a LMA3 and a TC4 for my EGT.
The DL32 is probbaly more flexible. Cool in any case.
No hurry yet for the trans brake. I will test it in September and then during our Swedish winter, I can update.
Thanks!

Machined some steels to fit more clutches in the auto.
I've moved the steel from where I machined it to get a better pic.

You're so funny!!!
Today I had great success with the manual valve body I made. Logged all the shifts and modified the v/b to shift absolutely perfect. This one is going
in Dean Penrose turbo injected beetle with mini spool, 930 flanges and one of my high rpm stall converters.
This will be one to watch out for on the street or the track!!!

Good luck for you and Dean! I will follow the progress, as usual with interest, far away but still so close.

Had time between auto rebuilds so got a little done on the notch, cut 6 of the intercooler end tanks off and welded them in pairs, made new end tanks
and tiged all the pipes.
315 amp tig, still getting use to aluminium welding
Turned up two V bands one for each turbo with o'rings
And a new seat

Well Aaron-it looks like you have nailed another professional Trade.Thats some very neat ally welding for a newcomer.I had better get some scrap ally
and do some practice runs to try and keep up.The work on the coolers is outstanding.

Thanks Greg, there's still lots of room for improvement.
I made the seat base, welded under the whole chassis and started on the ally sheeting. I'll use the bead roller on the panels at a later stage.
Very messy work shop, but got a bit done the last couple of days
Made 100 of these and have already welded 86 on using a quick jig to line them up
Hopefully I get time go finish the rear fire wall the week after next.

All the aluminium work is done
I made some seat belt covers to protect them from the engine bay.
And fixed down the battery
Now to finish fitting all the guards and start to think about a rear wing and rear opening window.
