5.0L Mustang Intake Manifold Part 3

[Music] so we're going to make use of our Universal table here on the shaper I'm going to spin this vise around we've just loosened it up bring it around here to zero just to help kind of clear up this side because this is going to be our work surface right there this is where our manifold and our fixture plate is going to bolt to and this thing will rotate loosen up these bolts right here and then we are going to spin this thing on around get this tightened up I got to remove that bracket get it out of our way and we'll start rotating it around need to do a little cleaning on to then you know a while since I've done any kind of cleaning on the face of that a lot of dust down here I'm gonna do a little cleanup before we got everything cleaned off including back behind the Vice there all the chips fall so when we rotate it won't have chips in there rubbing so you can see the graduated dial here and this table will rotate around right now we're on zero so we're going to actually bring this up to zero to do our setup and then once we're ready we're going to be moving off of this zero approximately the way that I've measured it I think it's around forty seven and a half degrees so we're going to be somewhere around that on both sides of this go ahead and bust these loose this is the first time that I've loosened these since I originally set the Machine up cleaned it you know got everything going first time and from what I remember once you get this thing moving it actually rotates very easy all right so wrench over there and then you got a worm warm chef right here that you'll use to move it so we're gonna go ahead and bust it loose there we go okay ran into a problem I forgot the device will not clear the back man all right I'm gonna have to I've gotta loosen the lights up and actually bring it back if you if I bring this vise to the edge of the table it'll actually clear the backside around there so I forgot about that let me do that first and then we'll finish rotating it around I like that there yep clear some of this stuff you just can't remember because you don't do it very often way to that vise acts like a like a counterweight really makes it pretty simple to uh clearing now I wish they'd just wouldn't design this would have cleared position you got a pin on the on the vise here that pin pushes in a hole but you see right there and that this this hole in that pin allows that vise to just stay fixed like it won't get pushed off there because that pin is engaged all right and then we'll start getting her set up now so we've got the table completely cleaned off with our degreaser there is a there is actually a big bird right here on this table that uh it looks like something must have hit it you know because it's over on the side so somewhere along the line something has hit this and I'm gonna get in there I'm actually gonna bring you in closer because I just saw that but what I was gonna get at was this is where you want to use your precision ground stones on these machined flat surfaces where all you're doing is just removing anything like this just a birth and I've got a couple there's a known right there I can feel it as that stone goes across it it's picking it up start with the coarse side and make sure the other things knocked down and it'll just make the highest spots of the machine face shine get the Sony and bring you on that and we'll do that one there maybe you can see that it's really sharp I can feel it with my finger so I'm taking I think that might be too much for the even the stones you up to get offer us their top of it see that shiny that's where the metals been deformed it's pushed up yes so that's a great example of why you want to use these do not Galvan and scratching around the other parts of the machine face right there [Music] this plane is off that burden strokes rubbing against the other stone see that shiny there I don't feel it anymore when I rub this track and forth across there so we should be good to go that's a good example of another one I remember that when I cleaned up last time that I was messing with this table just one little just one little indention you can see how it's shiny all the way around just give it a nice little robustness Townsend it just polishes it off nice and even [Music] all right I think we're ready to go to the shaper now all right that's the ones probably machines I've got a few that fit I thought see if this one goes in there no what the heck I thought I had them fit huh I guess I might have to do some melon all right that one fits maybe this is okay see the T slots on the the moving table it actually fits that one Wow all right well I'll go take I'll go take these tea nuts here and we'll just I'll just mill the sides of them there I like to use a car bike because these things are usually really tough and getting to where they just fit in it so I'm gonna take much you know fifteen twenty thousand stops all right I got our T nuts they're milled just these three because the other one fit what I found out is that this slot here is actually tapered slightly so it fit I came over here and checked it because the top of it fit fine but the bottom of them tapered so maybe I'm not sure why that would be tapered that much I mean I know that they've been used and pulled on but anyway so we got them we got to know where they fit in there now I just milled 15,000 off each side [Music] got one of my washers there that I made and then our flange not [Music] perfect [Music] I think we're just gonna go ahead and just tighten it down right there where it sits and we should be ready to start indicating now already we're gonna go ahead and start getting this thing leveled out what we're gonna do to get us are to get as close anyway I'm going to use this little starett number 98 is a four inch model level and we'll put this on our flange right there and just get it really close I've actually checked it over here on the way of the machine so I know this this machine is not level so at least I know where the ways are at and referenced to work where it's going to be sitting at and we'll do that here on the apart as well and this will just get as close and once we get it closed and we'll stick our indicator up there and will indicate across this flange face to make sure that we're nice and even there and it shouldn't take much to clean it up I'm gonna guess no more than ten thousandths but we're gonna just we'll take a couple of pots out cuts across it until it cleans up there I may have to raise this knee up with advice to clear the bottom of the machine space it's getting ready to hit someone have to raise this up some I think that's guilty enough that's going to be about the same level here as it is there on the way so we're gonna start doing our or indicating here now all right we got the Noga fixed arm set up over here and we'll sweep across this flange space to get it level then I'll just since it's such a short distance I'm going to use the hand crank and just manually crank it back and forth so we're off three three thousand threat there I actually think I've already gone too far huh oh no we got to keep going so to just make little little movements at a time on the worm until we get it it's flat as we can across there so we're down to a thousands there that's looking pretty good right there if it's it's with intense whenever you move the screw the other direction I can see a few tenths wiggle in that indicator you know things up here moving around so zero I think we nailed it right there I'm reading maybe 2/10 variation there go ahead Snug these up some before we get to tear it away with everything and make sure that it's not going to move on us I think we stayed wherever we wanted it I'm seeing tense movements in there but I don't think the tense is gonna really bother us on this right here now we got everything pretty well where are we gonna keep it we're gonna go ahead and put our knee support back on let's line it up like right there see we're low on this in so this ends going to have to come around and I just want to make sure that we're on the plane that was already machined on this we're getting there just going to take a little bit of this to get it squared up baby backs out a lot you understood I believe I got it set where it needs to be so this is the low side out here it drops off about mm right about here on down so you've got a little bit of a fluctuation in there but from here to here about the same reasons of 62 on the the dial and once it gets past halfway right about there it starts dropping off so we're gonna we're gonna leave or sit right where it's at I've got the fixture bolted back down tight and we'll make our little skin cut across there now to make sure it's good and straight [Applause] this is the tool bit that I'm going to use to cut the aluminum this has got a chipped and burnt up corner so we're going to touch this up and hone it [Music] [Music] [Applause] [Applause] getting a nice little radius on there and then we'll actually hone it with our honing stick that's the top [Music] clean up that edge that corner [Music] a little bit there [Music] all right it was good we'll go hone it now these are my diamond hones that I like using I've actually got a whole set of them right here all the way from extra course to extra fine made by easy laughs and I really love having these and using them I mainly just use them for the tool bits also sharpen my pocketknife with him there so I bought these from KBC tools so I'll go with the fine and just lay it flat against that that radius and just work your way around it and support it with your finger to kind of keep it square against the grind just work it in grip will own the grinding marks out over and that's looking real nice that looks good right there so I'll go ahead and go over to the super fine now and just kind of polish it up a little bit more it looks good and you can also take and do the top there as well so you're really only gonna be touching on the two sides because the will you know it's got a radius to it so just lay it flat you know you want to do is just just clean up your only you know we're only taking five ten thousand smacks so there's just very little area that this tool is gonna be cutting so as long as it's just you do a little hone and then you can see a little shiny spot there on the edge that's all you need just keep it flat and that looks good right there so we're gonna set this up and we're ready to start making our cuts we get our touch off here [Music] okay touching all the way down to right here and drops off just like the indicated selling they're not even lying all the way down this I found works the dust on cutting aluminum there's other stuff that works good too such as wd-40 that's what everybody always says I've tried wd-40 I've used it for years and it works fine but I actually think that this tap magic for aluminum works even better I got it I'm going to use it throating like that it should be good to go alright we touched off and I dialed in another for thousands see it looks like it may clean it up [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] looks like this first cut is not quite gonna finish up that corner there [Music] part of our problem he said that it was leaking it was leaking around the head in a couple of spots there [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Applause] so that was our first cut and I can see right in here you got some low areas it's even low right here at the top [Music] all the rest of us cleaned up so really I'll probably take another two graduations on the dial our dial here is every line that's to thousands we'll probably just go to another four and see if that'll clean up I do like the finish that that's given there as well I'm aware that these are these these type of automotive finishes they have to have a certain finish there to help with the gasket sealing so I like the way that this tool cuts I'm using a twenty thousand step over and it leaves the tool lines in there that I think will work good for you know a gasket go ahead and get set up and start making our second cut [Music] [Music] [Music] [Applause] both the completion of our second cut I think we've got it where we want it at it looks great it definitely cleaned it up we call that side done I'll get these chips cleaned off there and then we'll start the process of rotating this the other way [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] you [Music]
