Looking at pictures online, it looks like we'll need a different bracket for those that are RHD. Thanks, Eric |

Love the design and R&D that went into this.
Whats nice to see is the optional coolant passages, Another form of contamination not going into the motor! |

Here are some updated photos. Received the anodized and laser engraved parts and started assembling.
-6AN ORB to 1/2" hose barbs Caps with the coalescent filters installed Close up of filters installed Took off the prototype unit. Both sides of the AOS have oil traces on the filters showing they're doing their job. Definitely, need both sides filtered if you want to extract all of the oil out.

I like how you've incorporated coalescent filters into the design, and I think the unit looks great. But for those of us who would rather not drain the catch oil back into the pan, is there a way to check the fluid level of the can? Is a sight tube an option?

From my experience, you won't need to drain it more than once an oil change unless you track it heavily. With a Fumoto drain valve threaded in, it'd be quite quick and easy to drain. Here are some more assembly photos. Rear of base assembly First (3) fully assembled units Each mesh ball gets a sonic cleaning before being installed into the cans for half an hour. Installed photos If there are any photos you guys want of something specific, please let me know. I'll have an install manual up soon and these should be fully assembled shortly and ready to go shortly. Thanks, Eric Last edited by VerusEric; 08-09-2017 at 09:33 PM. |

Here are the last few photos of assembly.
Coolant passage port uncovered Coolant banjo bolts installed. Came out better than I had hoped! These should be available for order later this week on both FT-86 SpeedFactory and Velox website. Thanks, Eric Last edited by VerusEric; 08-09-2017 at 09:34 PM. |

These are now for sale on our website and soon FT-86 SpeedFactory.
http://www.velox-motorsports.com/#!p...c-c921839a6b69 I noticed during final assembly that the bases on the blue units had some discoloring. I'm not sure what happened during the anodizing process but these are on clearance for anyone that doesn't need a "show quality" AOS. Below is an example of one of these blems. Thanks, Eric |

Props for not just mixing in discolored units with the others and calling it a day. I have your LCA and they look amazing 👍 Velox has the quality control all companies should live by
