Regulator Bracket

Time to mount up the regulator.  I used 1/4-20 bolts with a flat washer and nice new lockwashers so they stay put.  Replace the lockwashers every time you take something apart.  They cost less then a penny.  I worked at a military contractor and saw the chart for how good lockwashers still work after repeated tightening.  After about 5 times they are useless.  A new one every time, even if you have to loosten something 20 seconds after you tightened it. 
The Custom Chrome people assume you own a 7/16 socket because they did not provide clearance for a wrench.  Same for Frank's and accel and everybody else.  Would it kill then to make the cutout an 1/8 inch bigger?
I made the bracket so wino I got a little guilty so I am making a little harness to pretty up the wires coming off the regulator.  I push the nylon braid over the 3 wires....

Notes:

Authoring: This site is created with the free composer program that comes with Netscape.  We are using 4.7 since rev 6 will not start on our Win2k box.  (Some coincidence that the latest Microsoft OS breaks Netscape huh?)

Our Guarantee: No Frames, no Java, no Swift C, no cookies, no cascading style sheets, no dot net monopoly bully and no Active Server Pages.  Minimal graphics and no audio without request.  Most documents in this site are available on pdf format and those will have full graphics content.  We also make the source documents available whether Excel or Word or Autocad.  We believe engineering and technology are an art.  Free sharing and expression are more important than small-minded monopoly rent seeking.  Feel free to use the files and materials on this site.  Good luck with your projects.
