RS WST Posted June 4, 2010 Author Share Posted June 4, 2010 Hi Andy Just getting the head ceramic coated on the inlet and exhaust ports and combustion chamber. Once that is back its going to JWT @ Stanwood's for a dummy build to calculate the piston height and valve cutouts so the pistons can be ordered from CP in the USA I'm going with Ken & Mick Thurs morning to Le Mans so see you at the camp site for a few shandy's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Seabrook Posted June 4, 2010 Share Posted June 4, 2010 Hi Austin just a thought but when I did my 8 injector set up I was told the best way to fit the outer injectors was at about 80 deg to the direction of air flow to aid fuel air mix rather than straight down the throttle body. Have you looked in to this? It would have been much easier to have fitted them like you have done. Still the engine is looking very Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RS WST Posted June 4, 2010 Author Share Posted June 4, 2010 It shouldn't be hard to alter I'll look into that, thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Seabrook Posted June 4, 2010 Share Posted June 4, 2010 Thought these might help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Seabrook Posted June 4, 2010 Share Posted June 4, 2010 I was also told to mount the injectors just inside the bell mouth as if any fuel dripped it would get taken in to the engine and not in to the filter. A petrol soaked air filter could get exciting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RS WST Posted June 4, 2010 Author Share Posted June 4, 2010 Good idea see info on external injection here http://www.f1-2000.co.uk/index.php?f=fuel_injectors Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Seabrook Posted June 4, 2010 Share Posted June 4, 2010 Wow amazing skill making something that small. My inlet is quite long so this may also affect the best way to mount the injectors. On saying that it does work very well and torque is very impressive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
