Honestly I didnt have much faith in it but it has been working great for me so far. I just made sure not to apply too much heat to it at one time to temper it as little as possible.

I've been working pretty hard on my fuel setup for the last week. Heres the pump that will be going into the stock fuel tank.



I'll try to get pictures with it in the tank tomorrow. All i have left is getting the bracket made for the coils/fuel filter, the fuel rails and it will be just down to wiring.

Looks great so far. Make sure to take your time doing the wiring. Mine is all messy and annoys me.

Getting so close all i'm missing right now is

1 180* fuel line fitting
1 Working ECU (still trying to work out bugs with mine)

I took my ford injectors to an injector shop and 5 dollars later I have some nice drop in injectors

Underside all buttoned up:

It's all push loc hose. Jegs sells the hose. Its all NHRA approved and if you have a local hydraulics shop you can likely find the fittings at a fraction of the price of the anodized ones.

I used the Aeroquip socketless hose - warning, this stuff is close to impossible to assemble in the -8 size. I have bruised palms to prove it!

It Runs! errrr ran

Just a note i but the Jegs push loc hose. I mixed the hoses up when i was purchasing. I meant to buy the Russel twist lok hose. So now I have to replace all my fuel line. Wooo 100 bucks down the drain.

No, It was funny i primed the fuel system a few days previous. I read your PM and then an hour later I primed it again and there were fuel leaks. I must have misread when i originally bought the line. I should have bought the russel stuff to begin with.

It lives once more!:
I'm still having problems with my injector staging so i haven't really gotten into boost yet. I had to stop filming during the drive because there were 2 sheriffs on the side of the road ahead.

BCool very nice build, hope you have sorted out the tuning by now. Haven't seen anyone running VEMS on a rotary, will be nice to hear your experiences with it.

I like it. It's a very open system with pretty much endless options on what you can do and what you can run. To my knowledge theres only 2 of us rotary guys running the system at the moment. The weather hasn't been all that great here so i haven't really been out driving the car much so tuning hasnt really gotten any further.
