Hi Everyone,

I have had some delay's in the build.. having some parts getting delayed and I had many people in person tell me my roll cage was not the safest due to poor welding/bending.. So I have taken the car to a buddy to create me a new cage!

Here is some of the more recent pic's of the progress on my car:





CJ motorsports rail kit with 4 port secondary & 6 x ID1300's



ATL fuel cell installed













I am most excited to insert this little gem from Aftermarket industries in! This unit is a 3 walbro pump surge tank that fits direct into the ATL fuel cell!

So you are still alive.

what was the main reason you decided to go to a fuel cell again?

shawnm565

We sumped my stock tank and did not coat it and it rusted out...

Broke_A_Baller

iTrader: (26)

Ouch.

How much is the cage going to run? I'm trying to get a welded in cage for road course setup and I don't want to screw up the bolt in auto power cage I currently have.

Around 2-3k I believe but it is going to be a pretty beefy cage lol

So you thinking the ETA is going to be 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 years before startup? :p

Who is ready to rev to 10,000RPMS?? This guy!!! The rotating assembly has been balanced, clearance, and lightened. I had CLR Motorsports do the work. So far I am please with the results. Stay tuned for further updates in the following couple months.

I also did the same to my rotating assembly but didn't build the engine yet

I didn't know that this mods allows you to rev to 10K , I was expecting 8k without too many problems but 10?

I also know that it makes you rev faster , and I believe you get safer boost in top end ...but I'm not really sure as I have never experienced it before

Thanks for the news

Also need to modify the oil pressure to be at a minimum of 120psi when at the 10k rpms.

Are you going to go with a external oil pressure regulator ?
How are you planning to tweak it ?

Hi Everyone,

I have been really slacking on the build thread lately but here is some updated pictures!

CJ Motosports Fuel rail with 2 x ID 1700's and 2 x ID1300's




I Changed out my oil pedestal for the black mamba one.



Here is just a display of my engine. It is not fully assembled. I had brought my engine to the 2015 PRI trade show in Indy.



A good friend of mine offered to weld up my cage for me. He owns a business in Nisswa MN Mid-Sota Metal Works. I think he did a great job!











Doing my best working on the logistics of my build and really hope to have it done before the end of May.

Does your eshaft have some kind of surface treatment? It looks WPC treated.

shawnm565
