Help - pic of WBSgen5 IC core halfs apart

[turtleman]

I need a picture of the WBS gen5 I/C core apart on the inside so I can see how much meat there is on the walls around the core tubes so I have an idea how much I can machine out of the core (without taking it apart). thought I had pics but nothing really good of that area

There's not a lot and that's not really an area I'd take anything out of anyhow. It's pretty light to begin with since it follows the profile of the blower.

I've got more pictures on my hard drive but here's a pic of the W body store Gen three that we machine for a gen 5 with the diverter tongue
The cord is not moved over as far as it would be with a double your body store gen 5 but I believe I was only three sixteenths to a quarter inch away
so you could have up to half an inch to machine around the corner tube so that you can fit hose on the three quarter inch portion of the nipple
either that buddy or you machine some groove so that we can try to pry the Halfs apart

Just lookin to make a small - maybe 3/16" wide 1/4" deep clean recess right around the core tubes so that I can secure a hose around the 3/4 portion of the tubes and trim the tubes down obviously to knock off the 5/8 and use some slim hose clamps. It looks like there's plenty enough meat to do it and have some sort of extended pocket to give the clamp worm clearance on one side.

Man now that I see that single pass idea, I want doey
