s13 fmic install

put my rebar back on today and was mocking up the fmic. looks like im gunna have to notch out the re-bar.

anyone else have to do this? is this necessary?

thanks guys

yes its necessary otherwise it won’t fit. You have to notch the back of it about half of its thickness. I also welded some supports from inside the rebar to make up for any lost rigidity from notching it. I’m using a greddy vspl, maybe other fmic’s may have to be modified differently?

alot of people completely remove the rebar, not the greatest idea

i have the centre of my rebar cut out for the IC but have both sides of the bar still in.

yeah i think im going to notch out the front center section and leave justa bit in the back for support.

thanks guys
