Polished the radiator and coolant overflow tank…and installed them back for hopefully the last time.
Then got my center bezel molded before cutting it for the Holley 6.86..going to mold this unit in flush next.

Fab work is done on the custom center bezel. Just need to make it pretty from here.

Up with some more braided.

And round of block and prime. About ready to mold and finish this piece. Working on the dash leather this weekend

 

[bird_dog0347]

Did you have to clearance the edges any to allow for the thickness of the leather?

The leather Im using on the dash actually just makes for a nice tight fit but not wrapping the center bezel in Leather. Now that its shape is what I want…I’m going to make a mold and make the final one out of carbon fiber.

Because, why wouldn't you?

Completed my first Carbon fiber piece. Its fitting its for this car too. The whole reason I got involved with Carbon fiber is no one offered me the piece I needed. A smooth cowl for my 94. I tried to get One place to
Make it and 4 yrs later nothing. So like Upholstery and machine work and a lot of other stuff I’m involved in now it started as a necessity. So KNK CarbonWorx is born.

What is crazy about this is, the place that makes these with vents, it would take any time at all to make it without. Their loss.

I dont think Carbon Driven is making any parts at this point. Idk

What does weigh compared to the original?

 

[RaggedGT]

I didn’t even know I wanted a carbon cowl panel till now…

 

[95steedamustang]

What does weigh compared to the original?

The one I made is less than a pound. Stock

Doesn't the filler neck vent need to be plumbed before the throttle body?

Its a check valve but Im rerouting anyway because I need that port for my regulator.

Carbon fiber cowl is officially a success. No gaps…no movement now that it’s installed. flush with the fenders…flush with the windshield and no uneven gaps between the two..and even to sail panels and hood.
