would it be possible to use the supercharger off a thunderbird or the turbo off one of them

 

i am rite now in process of building the manifold i need tohookmy m90 up to one off my spare engines , hopefully to just drop complete eng in, blower is just sitting on the engine with a old serpntine belt laying over the pulley it gives me wood everytimeiwalk by it, the bad is drippin off of it andcollecting in a pool on the floor,only things left is what too do for a carb , if i could scam a fmu i could inject it i still havethe efi system offn the cougar supercdoupe, 6 of them injecters ought to be enough, huh heeh eeeh hhheee jj,

 

im planning on using a 3.8 supercharger, donno if i'll intercool or not tho.

 

Superchargers suck... ask Sterling.

 

 

man im beginning to think that im surrounded by a bunch of school teacher ****** , if you dont like my posts dont read em! **** if i wanted criticism all the time for my spellin and syntax id just hang out with my wifes mensa bitches

 

LOL, dankus, you need to get a thicker skin man. They're just messin with you. Relax, dont sweat it. If they really get outta hand, Ill them.

 

what happened to sterling?

 

Yea what in the hell happend to sterling ?
Rx7carl is he still breathing or do you have him as a slave rebuilding NIKKI carburetors for you somewhere?

 

Igor..........er I mean Sterling is just fine, working in the dungeon..........er I mean shop on carbs and stuff.

 

Or he got banned, for being such a great guy.

 

what happened to his car

 

I wrenched my back out this last snowfall shoveling out an old man...






... because I am such a great guy.

If you were kidding around, then "good one".
If you were'nt, than "go **** yourself".


...thick enough skin for ya'll?

 

The M-62 found on the Ford 3.8s may only be able to deliver moderate boost. (like 8 pounds or so)
I figure since everything needs to be fabbed from scratch to make one work, you should opt for the larger M-90, which will have much more potential boost for the 12a.
-It will be a bit more fabbing, though, because the M-62 is smaller, and the bypass valve is an integral part of the blower, whereas the bypass valve on the M-90 blowers is added on as part of the plumbing.

Definitely use the bypass. Eaton says the blower will only use 3 HP to spin it during low manifold vacuum when the bypass valve is on (during cruise).
This helps take constant pressure off the front engine bearing, as well as economising fuel consumption.

I plan to relocate my alternator to the side of the engine where the AC compressor was, and probably relocate the oil filter, too. This leaves a nice spot on top of the engine. Creative mounting can make use of the various threaded holes on the top of the engine (rats nest mounts.)

No doubt about it, it's one in depth project. Like rotorydankus, I plan to build it on an engine and then plant the engine instead of trying to do it under the hood. It's a long and careful enough project to warrant yanking the engine, I think.

...of course everytime I think I'm going to start the project, it gets put off.

 

Question I have is this. Can the 12A be safely boosted beyond 8lbs or so? I mean on a regular basis that you would see in a daily driver, not a trailer queen, drag car.

 

DF is just messing around, his "graphic"ing of you should be considered an honor....you've touched him enough to respond,,,but, seriously, if you've been raised in America, then you must realize that the typed word here is a pretty good indicator of intelligence. Or whether you really care how you present yourself even beyond this virtual world. It's not all that hard to lay out text and make it correct. There really is no excuse for shoddy workmanship in the real world or here, when you think about it, if you are possessed of the proper discipline. And that's what poor diction here really speaks about. And if you don't have the discipline, why would anyone think you'd be capable of all the things you deftly smash out on the keyboard?

Anyhoos...the big problem with this idea and my idea of the twin 300ZX turbos, is that the engine has to be specifically be built for boost. If you attempt to place these beasts on a NA aspirated 12A or even 13B, you're talking about an engine that won't be around very long, especially if it's not intercooled, somehow...

I think it was eddierotary who's already found this out the hard way. If it wasn't him, it was someone in the past 6 months that did the turbo thing on a regular engine that wasn't pre-built for boosting. Take heed...

 

Mario, keep your diction advice and your boost advice in two seperate posts to the thread. This allows for two paralell conversations at once where we can agree AND disagree, be buddies AND call each other names, but never have one spill into the other (topic, I mean).
HOOYAH!

Now, I have excellent craftmanship. I have to as that is how I support my family. Thusly, I disagree with your using a persons "diction" ineptitude as a direct indicator of his craftmanship. I also know a few "red-necky" people who are very disiplined at killing things in the woods with the dead-on accuracey that reflects their discipline.
-They can't spell their own names, and so once again, I have to disagree.

 

Mar3 is correct about the engine not being able to withstand unreasonable boost. However, I maintain that boost can be regulated down with the use of an appropriate pulley.
At a later date, however, with some addition fabrication of a water injection system (which should pale in comparison to the depth and complexity of the original project), you can up the boost safely.

It would just be nice to know you can, if you were so inclined.
It was really just food for thought.

 

I agree to disagree...I didn't realize there were two posts running this topic, sorry...I saw this one first and you being the last poster drew me to it...

Now that I think of it, that's why I looked at it again, too....I'm trying to find the widebody thread and you're distracting me...

 

We could start a third about what the hell you're wearing in that photo...:P

 

He looks like a Hell's Angels' version of Neo from the Matrix.

 

"Mister Anderson..."

"It's 'Neo', ya little bitch. Now I'm gonna shove my boot in yer ***!"

 

Thats what I was thinking as well. Didint he put the new avatar up right around Halloween?
