somebody's been busy. changes in injector setup, too. looking real good, man - really good! can't wait to see it running.

 

i have been a bit busy well the sump is back from powder coating the gearbox in now on the back of the engine just waiting for some bolts for my steering box to come back from the cad plating shop but i reckon i am just gonna drop the engine in tonight regardless. And yes there was a bit of a change in the injector department probably a bit of overkill but it does give me the meathanol option later.


cheers dave

 

Well i decide to stay back tonight an do some work on the car and it really did pay off got alot more done than i thought i would found a few things that need some attention but all in all it is gonna come together really quick now so that vid is only weeks away















hope you all like them more updates as they happen!!!


cheers dave

 

What are you going to be injecting into the throttle horns?

 

I first have to admire your work, awesome.

The intake looks great but from the pics cant see how they are throttled!

So my dump question is what sort of throttle has that intake got, slide, butterfly or some thing else? From pic it looks like the throttle cable can go in both top and bottom.

 

Hey mate the picture really doesnt pick it up to well but it is butterflied all three throttle bodies will be joined together with rod ends and the throttle cable will pull on them from the front.
If you look on the 3rd pic you can see the arms off the throttle bodies just in front of the injectors.

cheers dave

 

Dave,

Are you the guy who built the 20B PP turbo which was on sale some time ago?

Great project!!

 

No mate not me

cheers dave

 

Hey guys another update things are really coming together fast guess thats what happens when you trial fit things 1000 times. I got my coils mounted started the wiring, got the exhaust wrapped and in and welded up my water outlet pipes.

















Hope you all like the progress

cheers dave

 

I like it ... ... extremely clean install.

 

Hey guys did a bit of tinkering tonight and i made my throttle linkages and modified my oil filler tube all small jobs that take time.. Here are some pics, gotta love rod end for throttle linkages.












cheers dave

 

the amazement continues. how much longer do you think it will be to iginition of this monster?


by the way, i really like that oil filler cap. where'd you buy it?

 

wow man amazing work, you have done a lot of additional small things that really add up to a beautiful setup, very nice to see such good work.

what is up with the injectors right at the horn edge? never seen that before... seems like excess gone wild...

thanks for all of the pics, I love these kinda threads!
oh man, a n/a 20b wailing WOT thru ITBs has to be one of the best sounds ever.

 

the front injectors have been done numerous times before. Besides the cool factor, because they would be right in the center of the opening and not offset somehow, fuel can spread more evenly.

 

I am thinking maybe by the end of the week we might have a noise out of it fingers crossed, and the oil filler cap use to have a badge in it from a rotary shop and i just took it out and my mate cut a sticker for me so i guess it is just custom made.


cheers dave

 

Are those vacuum nipples below the injectors or are those for nitrous?

 

A very very clean install, the attention for details make me cry! Very sweet and eyecatching. Good WORK!

 

They are vacuum nipples im pulling vacuum from all cylinders to even it out and get a truer signal for the map sensor, oh and the brake booster




ps thanks for all the kind words, finished the oil lines tonight fuel lines will be done tomorrow night, radiator hoses thny we will have ignition
woo hoo

dave

 

great proyect!!!!

hope to hear it roar soon!!

 

wow this is very impressive. i take my hat off for you dude. good work

 

hey guys finished off my fuel system tonight, i ran the fuel lines under the car and fitted all the injectors lock wired the top ones dont want anything vibrating loose and falling into one of those trumpets and fitted all the fuel rails. i also made up the oil lines and filled the thing with oil, So tomorrow morning i am gonna prime the fuel pumps and get fuel pressure up to check for leaks and get oil pressure up then i need to do a tiny bit of wiring and she should start, it has been a long time coming but they reckon good things come to those who wait.




















cheers dave

 

Sorry if I missed it. . .are you gonna run a Mezeire? If not, what are you gonna run for your waterpump? Also, is this to be a streetcar? Drag? Just curious. Thanks.

 

whats the wire on the injectors for?

 

That's old/current aviation tech right there. The wire keeps the screws (which have holes in them) from backing out due to engine vibrations. Dave20bpp is taking the necessary precautions to prevent them from falling in the open intake.

 

Hey guys the day finally arrived i got a noise out of the beast and what a noise it was, the thing is angry real angry i have 2 vids like i promised the first one is without the rear pipes connected and the second one is with the full exhaust, hope you like them. the quality isnt the best, cause to be honest i didnt think it would have started today, i will get a better video camera and takes some more.
