Monocoque Measurements

Thats not a drawing though, its a projection through the side of foot box where the 3.5" holes are located. Some of the other faces and planes in that view are not parallel with the plane where the holes are located. I have shown that view as we were discussing the sizes of the holes. The rest of the lines are placed where the match up with the adjoining panels. The first parts i started drawing were the floor panels and the front stiffening box that runs down the outside of the floor where your feet are. Then I drew the front closing panels where the steering rack mounts and the other panels over the top of your feet where the pedal assembly mounts. If you have those in space in a 3d cad program the rest of the dimensions will revile themselves. I doubt someone looking at a car is going to be able to tell if you are out by 1/4".
I have not looked at this area of my drawings for a few years now. Life gets in the way. I will get back to the project again shortly.

thank you very much.
 
Looking for measurements for the Mk2/Mk1 fuel crossover crossmember. Hole DIA, location, crossmember width and height. Any other information on the fuel crossover would be appreciated.

The methodology I used was as follows.

I noticed that almost all parts in the chassis construction use a series of nominal holes sizes. I presume there was a set of hole punches and flanging dies and all holes in the sheets are formed using these sizes. eg,
EG
1", 1&1/4", 1&3/8", 1 & 1/2",1 &5/8", 1 & 3/4" 2", 2 & 1/4"

(1", 1.25", ~1.38", 1.5", ~1.62", 1.75" 2", 2.25")

using that assumption, I just scaled the photos from known dimensions like the floor ribs and the center tunnel height and width and then trialed the nearest nominal sized hole/flange as i had assumed I would be using a hole punch set during construction as well.

I'll dig out my cad work latter on, when I am back at that computer.
