I was able to machine my bugcatcatcher adapter plate for my 8-71 EFI project. I did most of it on my manual Bridgeport, however the center holes were done on my buddies CNC machine because I needed to radius around the center bolt holes in order to keep the side walls to .625". This will allow me to cut the pockets for bosch style injectors and the pintle will protude just a tad (if the walls were thicker then the injector pintles would not protrude correctly). Next up, cutting the injector pockets and machining the fuel rail stock. Anybody have any ideas for fuel rail stand offs. I have a couple but I would like to hear from others. I know I could have bought this plate from BDS but I wanted to make it myself cause I can.:)
