jackb_ms Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 Hello All I have been supplied by Caterham a pipe for my dry sump conversion which is braided and crimped at either end which is too long by about 100mm. Does any know a company not too far from Uxbridge or Abingdon who could shortened it for me? Cheers Jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2GBR Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 It may be the correct length as it could be best routed by laying in a curve out to a lower engine bay side rail and fastened with cable ties to take the weight etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackb_ms Posted May 15, 2013 Author Share Posted May 15, 2013 It's the pipe from the pump to the swirl tower I am talking about. The obvious way is below the throttle bodies to the tower. Should it be routed differntly? Jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The obvious way is below the throttle bodies to the tower. Should it be routed differntly? Jack This is the correct routing. if it doesn't fit it's because Caterham have supplied the wrong length ... return it and ask them for the correct one. Stu.

jackb_ms Posted May 16, 2013 Author Share Posted May 16, 2013 Stu Do you know the length it should be? I have roughly 645mm from the back of the ferrules to back the of ferrule Cheers Jack Edited by - jackb_ms on 16 May 2013 09:11:55 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnv Posted May 16, 2013 Share Posted May 16, 2013 another tack could be to take it to think auto (not far from Uxbridge) and get them to make you one the right length, then send that one back to Caterham? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackb_ms Posted May 16, 2013 Author Share Posted May 16, 2013 I have called Think and the length is correct according to them ( they make the pipe for CC) I'm puzzle now Jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
