Yep the red part that goes on the head is just a plastic facade, He'd have just taken it off while working on it so he doesnt scratch it up or whatever.

You need to take that cover off to change the sparkplugs and/or coilpacks.

Still the same head.

1

This is the circuit board i designed.
Its the factory 122 pin connector but i also have the middle plug.
That way all the MoTec senders have its own cable run.
Also i have may other spares there for any onther things i might need in the future.
Makes connection to the MoTec clean with no loose wires all over the place.
BTW I WILL HAVE 8 OF THESE FOR SALE
2

This bracket was made so as to hold the Rotrex oil reservior and magnetic filter.
Final beveling of corners need to be done then its off to get powder coated.
3

It final resting place will be where the cruise control actuator normally resides.
Also it will be close to me double fan set up

Sitting under the side panels. Once powder coated it will disappear


Final resting space. The baffel that holds the fan is currently under construction. As you will see the fan on the Setrab oil cooler will also help in cooling the Rotrex oil canister and the magnetic oil filter

Part finished and sandblasted . Ready for powder coating

FEW MORE PARTS

1

New shroud , now holding the Setrab oil cooler with its own fan to keep the Rotrex oil temp under control. With another fan 5.5 inch for the OEM fan computer
2

Tee made for vacuum supply for the OEM BOV. Tee put in the PCV hose from the inlet manifold
3

3 BAR Map sensor
4

Bracket made to hold the MoTec 3 BAR map sensor
5

6
Vent pipe to redirect the CRANK VENT to the OEM oil catch can
7

Bracket made to hold the 2 oil lines for the Rotrex and the vacuum line for the brakes
8

Tee holding the oil temp sensor for the Rotrex oil supply
9

Made a fitting to hold an OEM 3SGTE air fiter for the MAP sensor.
Easiest way to do it instead of stuffing around with the inlet manifold

You always make me laugh.

And sweet lordy lord, is that an awesome looking build!

I shudder to think about what size piece of aluminium was whittled down to make some of those brackets.

1
XLR connectores. Left is for the MoTec 800 CAN cable while the right one is for headphones for the knock sensors to monitor each cylinder
2
MY CUSTOM MoTec 800 box in the making
3
4
5
Air filter location for the MAP sensor. Used the mystery nipple on the manifold to supply the air to the sensor.
Again only used factory locations for mounting.
6
7
8
9
Used the top of a Lexus ECU for a factory ECU look. Once finished ill add the Toyota sticker
All the wiring will be made inside the box.
From the ouside all there will be is the harness plugs. The centre one which is not used in the Beams is there to add all the other sensors for the MoTec 800 and will be bundled with the engine loom

Ive always powder coated and never had any issues.
Hate shiny bits , all my installs with stereos have always been stealth.
