An acquaintance at work stopped me and we were talking about our respective cars and venues. He fields a front engine nostalgia dragster.

He got hold of this dual fuel pump drive set up and wanted to take one side and convert it to drive his magneto. Local CAD/Machine shops wanted upwards of $400 for this one off adaptor.

He went to www.emachineshop.com , built the bracket on line and submitted for bids. It was under $200 ...

So, I'm skeptical ... but he swears by this place and has had numerous pipeces built by them since.

Thoughts?

Wow! My dream-come-true! I probably will send them a few projects.

The main limitation may be the loose nut behind the wheel. Even for the engineers among us, "structural properties of materials" is a fairly specialized field. Other than Jon, UE Jason, and perhaps Yang Hu, most of us should use caution when designing stressed parts, especially for anything that could cause an accident on failure. I would err on the side of overdesign and be careful to radius the stressed corners, etc.
