76mm Holesaw

Post by VegetaSSJ4 »

Hey guys

Does anybody have a 76mm holesaw that I can borrow in the JHB area?

I cant see the point to pay R250 for it only to use it once.

I need one to fit my intercooler.
It needs to be able to cut into steel.

I will really apreciate it if anybody can help me out on this.

I will return it. I just need to make 1 hole.

PM me if anyone can help

Thanks

I used something like a 90 or 92mm holesaw to drill a hole for my 76mm boost pipe and then fitted a rubber lining in the hole.

I still have the holesaw here somewhere and some of the lining, there's a place near Eastrand Mall that sells it. Will look for the name and address and post it up. Otherwise go look in a scrapyard for an older Opel Kadett (Superboss shape) they have a rubber seal under the bonnet that works well.

I got a rubber lining from Midas, it actually had a chrome strip on it but that was easy to peel off.
