🔧 BUILD It was time for something a little more spicy v.Pontiac

[Broke EF]

Yeah I mean you really need two sets of injectors but I feel like that's gonna be a little more complicated and tuning it might be a party

There are definately some pros and cons to each option. Right now I am leaning toward two completely seperate systems. Another big reason for wanting to do two systems is the ability to at least drain the street tank when I run. Weather or not I do that every time who knows, but the option will be there. Street system will be a flex fuel setup that I will try to run on E85, but if I get into a situation where I cant find some I can throw in whatever. I know most of the big guys street drive on just 87 which would be better mileage of course.

To be fair I can only brainstorm ways to make it happen. It's not like I'm gonna be tapping a 3800 mani for a second set anytime soon and unless somebody walks in here with the money im gonna want to figure it out for them I'm drooling over what you decide to do with this

You have room up front for a 5 gal fuel cell?

I do when I get rid of the intercooler...

Somethin about the boost pressure dropping after the intercooler because of lower charge temps that idk if I buy, but I haven't bothered to test it yet either.

When we were building the car way back when, there were a handful of things I was not on board with. The GIANT air to air that I built was one of them. At the time I wanted him to go air to water, but he didnt want to deal with the tank, and ice etc. I somewhat agree because dealing with the ice can be a pain in the ass. Anyway, it was his car, and his money so he bought a massive core, and I designed some end tanks and cut them and formed them at my work and welded it all together. I am happy with how it all came out, but I would also be just as happy to get rid of it all and run alcohol

Yeah I've got a real love hate relationship with the corn juice ice tank would really be the way though. And i don't know that I'd wanna take it off try to run 87, think I was pretty close to my limits there the way it is.

New core vs old intercooler (Dec. 2011)

Old intercooler, new core, old radiator (Dec. 2011)

New intercooler welded up and mounted. It has 4" V-Band inlet and outlets (Feb. 2012)

i can't imagine the money into having this thing reshot entirely black- and from pics it looks decently done?

Same! I ran it on the SC, which was the first time I ever did. When we built the TA I was very against it. I still will only ever do it with a flex sensor because it varies too much. I am also not sure I would go no IC with E85 either. Probably would be OK with it to a point.

He has told me a number, and it was a lot. Its very well done, thing looks like a sheet of glass. Makes me nervous as hell

You don’t need 5 gallons. More like 3 with the proper cell. Maybeee 4 if quarter mile

 

[Pro Stock John]

thank you

 

[Broke EF]

Plan is 50 gallon street, 15 gallon race. This thing is THIRSTY. I am also doing dual mechanical pumps like a top fuel car.

You guys think I need more? I guess I could go bigger. Would be nice to be able to do the whole week without refilling either tank now that you mention it.

[Mook]
