You would have better better off parking the maths (sums😂) and learning a bit of pattern development. Truncated cones pretty easy to do, and you could have had your angle change and reduction in one go. The elbow is an even easier development since with a cylinder all the heights in 2d are true lengths unlike the cone where only the outer lines of a 2d elevation are true lengths. (Yes I am a sheet metal worker by trade). When making these sort of bits with the gear you've got I suggest making in two halves, an extra run of weld granted but much easier to form. If you had pattern developed them the diminishing lines would have given you a nice guide to incrementally tweak them round. Anyhow, good job, on the top hose at least😂😂! Looking forward to seeing the longer runs and getting the settings dialled in though I suggest you make some exhhaust gaskets before you do. If it survives a few heat cycles without blowing will you leave the heads on?
@@blackhouseengineering5386 there is more than one way to skin a cat, but I bet your way is better ! 😂. I’ll have to do a bit more research on pattern development… thanks for the tip 👍
@thebracketfactory Very true and you got the job done which is what counts! When I were a lad the bible was A. Dickason's book Sheetmetal Drawing and Pattern Development. Probably long out of print but there is plenty of resource on the Interweb. The real old hands when I was an apprentice would make simple "sculpture" by tacking welding rods together then roll that out on the sheet marking where it touched to produce a surprisingly accurate pattern. They called it a RolypolyOgram and could do it faster than I could draw it🤣🤣
I think I might have gone for modifying the radiator but that would be the more risky route, in the unlikely event that you find the flow is restricted you still have that option. As always you have done a great job and the maths was interesting as it showed how to create a cone that was a perfect fit.
That is going to be so cool! Oh me, the maths! 😱 Oddly enough. I just made an insulating sleeve to fit a McD's small coffee cup. I turned to an on-line calculator for truncated cones. The calculator did all the head scratching for me. 🙂 Now turn your talent to calculating the flow produced by the pump and the flow capability of the radiator. 😵💫 Twas a fortunate stroke of serendipity that the rad frame aligned with the wagon's.
Great stuff Chris. Watching on a Saturday morning drinking my coffee is a great way to start the weekend - now I just need a bit of motivation to get into the garage or maybe I’ll watch Shed Racing for an hour 🤔👍🏻
Loved the arithmetic Chris, I do enjoy putting the calculator away and engaging the brain to keep it ticking over. Nice work too, looking forward to the flush and next engine start up 👍
WAIVING A HAND FROM WEST VIRGINIA US. LOOKING forward to seeing 👀 it Run again. You have pretty nice welds there brother. God BLESS EVERYONE AND TRUST IN OUR LORD AND SAVIOR CHRIST JESUS 🙏.
Sunday UA-cam catch up. Just watched your mate 'Oak Swamp', now 'The Bracket Factory'. What a contrast, but both building cool cars. i think I favour your approach but glad you could help Bryan. Any news on a Chassis?
Cheers Chris! Yes, we are very similar but very different at the same time! I do have a potential chassis but the chap 'letting it go' is going to let me know... keep everything crossed!!
I laughed out loud about Anette! Shame she's not been used this time. Outstanding work as always, love a bit of maths, but then I would being an engineer 😉
Chris, the tee-shirt arrived this afternoon. Thank you. I’ll look forward to some tee-shirt weather so I can flaunt myself round the neighbourhood! I’m not sure of the sizes, but you might like to see if you can source some radiator top-hoses from a Bedford CA van, they start large (thermostat-sized) at one end and ‘radiator-sized’ at the other. Your maths example lost me at the first line, but never mind… both my bikes are air-cooled so I don’t need to make radiator hoses! Regards, Les
glad you chose the linda radiator as its a pressurized radiator the other with the larger header tank looks very much like a non pressurized non water pump or thermostat thermo syphon cooled system same as my austin ten. Thanks for the update this is going to be a great project bulid .
Hey up mate you asked the questions so, waste of time on your passion for the water pipes as you won't use them in the car, rad is fine for now but still won't be used in car, can't remember your other question's but was a good video and i enjoyed it
@thebracketfactory nice one could tell you were enjoying it I've been known to do similar things and yes is does feel good, like I said was top video mate
OMG Trig and Algebra gave me nightmares at school (65 odd years ago ) or as dear Physics beak used to say '' lets do the sums'' but as I have a huge box of old copper Yorkshire fittings I would have made a new flange for the engine output and used copper pipe and fittings to suit whatever the rad stubs were diameter wise. .. If you ever get to see my old Dodge truck you may notice said bits of copper, cool content as usual and look forward to seeing some steam and water everywhere next time.
Great vid as usual. I can't do the maths, I'd have just ditched the 60mm outlet and made a new base plate with a 32mm pipe all the way to the hose at the radiator. Keep up the good work.
I didn't actually think of that! But I'm afraid it wouldn't work as the thermostat is housed between those two flanges, and like everything else, it's a whopper!
I usually roll a piece of paper like a ice cream cone, adjust one end of paper to diameter of large pipe tape it then roll other end in or out to fit other pipe tape then cut. Maths is not my subject.
sorry about that! I thought I was probably starting to get a bit boring... but here goes. Theta = C1/R1. We have already calculated R1 (114.3mm) and we can calculate C1 to be 100.5 mm because we know the diameter is 32mm (so it's just 32 x Pi). So theta is 0.88, but that is in radians, not degrees. So given that there are 2 x Pi radians in 360 degrees, we can convert 0.88 to degrees by multiplying 0.88 by 360 and dividing by (2 x PI) to give us 50.5. Probably should have just rolled up some card in hindsight !!
Unlike you, Maths was my worst subject at school (more than 60 years ago) and you lost me before you started, but I enjoyed the fabrication. Funny, but when I use rollers I can produce cones when I'm trying to make parallel tubes. Best wishes.
@ Hi, there was a comment made by an earlier person (panel basher who stated a different method of construction of the conic section. You showed a mathematical method to achieve your conic section and then constructed it on video (brave) our panel basher only made a comment and I’d like to see the way he would actually achieve the finished article 😊
In NZ we say maths but Americanisms are creeping in. I think most people would miss the Annette reference. Even more obscure, the actress who mentioned it was Granny in Metal Mickey. I think Fusion 360 has a feature where you can make a shape in 3d as sheet metal then unfold it to get a flat pattern. As someone else mentioned I would probably just have rolled up the cereal box by hand to get the right shape then used it as a pattern to cut sheet metal!
We Aussies do more than one math, like our Brit cousins. We also solder not sodder and refer to RPM not RPMS, as well as have mudguards not fenders. We use serviettes and leave napkins for babies.
I reckon disproportionately difficult solutions are the making of a good project, it's the polar opposite to a bodge. Not sure about the math(s), I didn't understand it at school but was sure I would never need it in life after school. Seems I was wrong!
I use frozen pizza boxes for my patterns! There’s a way easier way to layout cones right onto sheet metal that doesn’t involve all that math. I haven’t done it in decades but years ago I used to do it. I honestly don’t really remember it anyway right now!
Nice work Mr. Factory. Would putting 60mm pipes on the rad be an easier solution? Since flow is proportional to the square of the pipe size and the engine's inlet is twice the size of the rad's it's going to want to flow about 4 times (Math as we say in Canada) as the rad.
You lost me when you got the cornflakes box out and wrote on it, why not just roll card up and cut to size. Or instead of a cone reduce the inlet on the engine therefore having a top dog at a better angle…. There again great job. And very nice work
To be honest, I’d rather sweat a new fitting onto the radiator, bit of copper or brass rolled to a pipe, dress the end to a flange and solder it in. When I swopped the 440 V8 in the Winnebago for a Ford Devon diesel I fitted the ford radiator pipe stubs to the Chrysler radiator, no problems despite the diesel vibration etc
@@thebracketfactory sorry for being offhand, and getting awkward. You’re a much better engineer than I, and more balanced. Thanks for the build so far, I look forward to seeing more, and I’ll calm myself down from my day before commenting. Regards Paul.👍👍
Just brought back memories of being back at technical college 😁 Nice work but I think I'd have soldered in a bigger spigot as it would have been simpler.

Yes and no...! The engine did pump water, but only by driving a separate water pump...so the engine would need to run continuously at decent revs while not moving... so had an ENORMOUS radiator and BIG pipes connecting it all up!
Great work, top marks for doing the maths on the cone, 90% of us would have winged it 😂
