Its that time of year again!! Time for more tinkering

[maddog]

Sorry!! Mods......can you place this in the gallery as i mistakenly put it here. thx.


Yes, its a year since i fitted my new engine and she's out once more.

New kit to fit

Including my original fuel tank thats in tintop condition

Outlet modified and return union welded in place

As the fuel hose is alot bigger, a new entrance had to be drilled

 

[maddog]

Larger fuel pump installed

Then time to fit the new return pipe to the fuel tank

 

[maddog]

Regulator ready to go in.....

Then time to weld the manifolds before tapping them........

 

[maddog]

Solenoids in place....

Of course, the most important part :lol: the go faster button :wink:

And the gas tank....

Yeah cheers bud, i got some twin 36 dells on the van now with a full stainless side exit zorst from Turbo Thomas. Van goes so much better......but still 1600, so no 1/4mile for me. Yet :wink:

Hows the season going so far?

 

[maddog]

Not an easy install in a bus tbh. Especially room wise (sounds strange as u think u have loads of engine space). The foggers end up very close to the body, so extra parts are needed, for example 90 degree unions to come off the manifolds so you can direct the lines without kinking them etc...

Getting the engine is a right joy too :lol:

Nice one!! Shiney exhaust too 8) Bet you are chuffed with the extra power though.

Ive been struggling with grip mainly but always grinning when driving her!

Bit of a rush getting bus ready for BugJam though....hopefully all will come into place.

im not really up on NOS, i know the principles, heavier gas, more fuel etc. but the routing of the fuels lines, one to the carbs etc is confusing me. What is all the other piping and where do you inject the NOS? is it directly into the manifold? slightly confused but curious....
