Little bit disappointed in myself:(

['00 WO-YA!]

I totally messed up a sacrificial Blaster jug tonight. I was adding boost ports to the intake side, I nailed one of em & botched the other side all to ****!! Damn shame too, I guess that's the learning process, it's not totally ready for scrap, it's gonna be my lil test the limits of thing & see were the boundaries are piece.

I got a good buddy who lives in the Shanandoah Valley.

Ugh, the agony, well, how do we fix it? I have a couple of ideas.

I dont quite get whats going on here

 

['00 WO-YA!]

I screwed up drilling boost ports & popped a hole in the jug, you can see it in the pic that Weston put up for me. I'd like to fix it if possible.

Find a good TiG welder. see if it can be filled and reground.

 

[rappy'97]

Epoxy???

 

['00 WO-YA!]

I've thought of both of those, I'd love to do epoxy b/c I could do that myself, I just don't know if it'll hold up. Otherwise I'm gonna have to find someone who tigs.

JBweld FTW!

^+1

 

['00 WO-YA!]

Haha, that's what I was think, at worst, it won't work, oh well.

 

[87warrior917]

Epoxy??? :loco:That would never hold up to the pressures in the cylinder, let alone the heat.

 

[MotoArts]

Kinda what I was thinking. I was waiting for the punch line.

If you're talking about the drill hole into the sleeve, then you''ve created a cool paperweight. Sleeve time. I don't think any welding will work on an iron liner pressed into aluminum like that (heat sink, different metal properties and chemicals released, etc).

Ok, I've been studying this quite a bit. It really appears that what I feared may have been a fubar will just be an addition. These holes will be open at the same time that the main port opens & close off when the piston is down. At this point in the cycle there's still a small opening in the main port so no biggie. I believe it's going to be just fine.

Thats what i thought since they were on the same plane
