Few questions E85

What injectors are you guys running and fuel pumps?

I am currently running the siemens 2200's but they are low impedence.... I have a injector driver but if buying new injectors it just seems smart to buy the ev14's...

I am going to run 6-8 injectors on the new set up. Thinking four to six 2200's and two 1000's .

What pump? Weldon?

Thanks,

Mike

Mike,
I will be running EV14's. A few FD owners down here are running them with no issues.
As far as pumps, it will be dual Bosch on a CJ hanger

I know of a few running the SX18203 fuel pump

Hope this helps

We run a Mechanical Waterman pump with 8x2200cc Bosch. Idles beautifully. Do it now, before regretting it later. Rotaries are thirsty SOBs.

I think you can get away with 6x2200's at your power level since 4x2200's will support around 600rwhp with high duty cycles. If you aim for north of 800, might be a good idea to go for 8x 2200's.

Probably need to go with a mechanical pump or dual/triple Bosch 044's. I've heard the dual Bosch pumps can handle 800rwhp on E85 but I don't have any proof. It would make sense since one can handle 400rwhp on E85. Mechanical would give you a lot more headroom.

Sounds like 8 2200's is they way to go then. Still up in the air on a pump. Anyone have opinions on a big aeromotive or other external pump?

Good for 800whp+. Proven as there is Multitude of people running 2 044's making decent numbers. I know of 2 people that has use the same 2 044's for 7+ yrs, going from Pump gas to c16 to q16 to e85 to e98. There's 101 ways to skin a cat. just my .02

Mine.

If it is a street car, 2 Bosch. If it is a race car only, go mechanical.

The Aeromotive Eliminator can't flow what the dual Bosch pumps can and the Eliminator is not as reliable.

For the power you'll be at, this is a great electric solution. Mechanical would probably be a better idea though.

From the Holley site. What does pressures up to 80 psi mean?

"Need to feed some serious horsepower? Have a nitrous or forced induction powerplant that also sees street duty? Holley's new Dominator™ in–line fuel pumps are the answer! The patent pending twin pump design allows you to use one pump for cruising and both pumps when you activate the nitrous switch or start building boost! By staging the second pump, you eliminate the unnecessary recirculating and heating of extra fuel which can lead to poor performance and hot fuel issues. As an added benefit for the hard core enthusiasts that run events like Hot Rod Power Tour and the Baja 1000, the extra pump offers the peace of mind that you will always finish what you start! For hard core race vehicles, both pumps can be wired for full time duty to get maximum performance and are proven with 18.5 volt compatibility at pressures up to 80 psi. At only 5.1 lbs, they weigh half a pound less than competitive 1000+ horsepower pumps yet have twice the features!"

What's the most power anyone's run with E85 in a rotary?

You can read about suggested octane value of E85, but it seems a little vague. Unsure if the fuel becomes a problem before block and 1-piece e-shaft or not...

I'm running 2 ev14 725cc and 4 ev14 2000cc with a dual Bosch 044 pumps. I run a 15gal fuel cell. 23 lbs 480hp mustang dyno aprox 75 injector duty cycle. I think you might want to run 8 inj. Just to be on the safe side.

Yep me thinks 6 x 2000 or 2200 is enough fuel. 8 is way over kill for the turbo you have.

Sorry man. After trying many turbo's myself, I'll NEVER go with anything smaller then a T6 1.32 96/88 exhaust turbo if power was my goal. My motor is just a small secondary bridge and thinking about sending the exhaust wheel out to have it clipped to flow even more.
