Engine stand for A7 engine work

A very simple air filter made from a tea strainer

Hi Austin,
Very neat, though in practice it wont filter much and will adversely effect air flow through that nice SU.
If your not looking to max the gain from fitting an SU then better to use an efficient filter. Not so sexy looking but does preserve your engine and if its all under the bonnet its not on display.
Just a thought.

We like the excellent 'amateur' productions Geoff, it adds something for the viewer to ponder and smile at.
Keep the great productions coming

Will do NickB.
Geoff - That's all the encouragement I need

Hello Paul,
The filter isn't my work, I took the photo at Bicester Heritage.

Exhuming an ancient thread.
Since I had my engine in bits recently I snapped a photo of my engine cradle that fits onto a standard Machine Mart type engine stand.
Created with precision and planning from flat bar using the well tried "weld it where it touches" approach to fabrication. Works very well and allows good access.
