No, it won't flex... For the ease of assembly and to have some form of flexibility I'm thinking to skin it only main Y, leaving alone them rings that hold clamps for intakes and throttle body. Ideally I would like to grind down those ribs and skin it so it's all smooth curves but I know that they're vital for rigidity. Otherwise that rubber would be collapsing under the load of vacuum. Just a thin one layer skin of carbon fiber chops would be enough for rubber Y not to collapse rigidity wise with grinded down ribs, but there's a big but here... resin doesn't stick to rubber very well. It will, and it will vibrate off over time. And if then rubber will start collapsing- I'll be in deep sh!t and I won't even see it LOLWill carbon fiber flex enough to work as skin for the rubber intake manifold?
I do indeed, it's on my shopping list... as well as milling machine, bigger lathe, powdercoating oven, vacuum oven, better Mig and Tig welders, plasma cutter, V100 Mandelo, and so on and on. I'm still single and still in search of a wealthy cougar, if ya know any...Me thinks ya need a bigger compressor.
Case you didn't know, Vancouver Island has the highest concentration of cougars in North America. Go hunting...I do indeed, it's on my shopping list... as well as milling machine, bigger lathe, powdercoating oven, vacuum oven, better Mig and Tig welders, plasma cutter, V100 Mandelo, and so on and on.
