Ok that's great cheers chaps

 

Very nice and neat twin pump assembly.

Noisy little buggers tho.

Good luck with the build Ian.
Looks like a gt30 to me.

 

I would recommend Speedflow. There are lots of companies out there who use cheap Chinese fittings. They're poorly made and most will leak.
Stick to brand names, Speedflow, Earls, Goodridge etc.

-6 from tank to swirl pot.
-8 from swirl pot to pumps
-6 from pump to fuel rails
-6 from rails to regulator
-6 from regulator to swirl pot
-6 from swirl pot back to tank

-10 for oil return from oil separator to sump.

 

I have earl fitments and have just brought the torques kit and to be totally honest the finish and connectors and even the threads are exactly the same if it was poor quality I would not of felt no way to send it back which he said I could do if I was not happy because I was asking him so much questions.SJ.

 

Cheers there

I'm looking at twin 044's as I've heard they're quieter than aeromotive or fuellab options, if there are other options or quieter ones I'd be interested to hear (no pun intended!)

I guess that when you get to this level that you have to accept a certain amount of noise. I do have an alloy firewall to go in behind the rear seat so hopefully that should help to keep some of the noise out from the cabin.

Thanks Frayz, my oil cooler and lines/fittings came from speedflow as they're just up the road from me, The rest of my fuel lines in the engine bay are goodridge.


Good to know thanks, have heard good things about torques stuff.

 

+1 for Torques.
an8 fitting swirlpot to bosch , all others are an6

Cheers Trev

 

On your engine, the pipework to the avc's has Torques fittings, have a look at them, quality is as good as Goodridge imo.

 

Cheers Paul

 

Just had a call from Alyn to say clutch has arrived so won't be long before we can crack on

 

The 900th million part has arrived of the 2000 trillion zillion bits needed

 

But these parts are needed and not just wanted to justify the infinite expenditure

 

What power will this be good for Iain? How much more is needed to finish the jigsaw lol before it's all put together

Martin

 

Are these the ones that are good for 700?

Bez

 

Yes it's an act extreme so rated to 725 lbs/ft. Martin all that's left really is the fuel system, I already have rails, injectors and the fpr, so I just need to decide on swirl pot setup etc. All the parts are going up to the garage this weekend.

 

pleased your happy with the clutch Ian..........

 

Not sure how long the proper coating lasts , but i saw his headers after a year of use, ain't no coating left there , cheap for a reason , as his other "exceptional" cough cough work

 

Any updates for us yet Iain?

Martin

 

Just put one of these in mine, much better than the old tinplate

 

I used swirl pot 2, if you are going with -AN fittings on the fuel lines

Fuelling sorted thanks to Torques

 

Nice.SJ.

 

Engine meet car

 

Nice.... I could do with that lot from Torques.

 

You and me both

 

You not rotating the inlet now Iain ?

 

Looks the part mate.Very nice.SJ.

 

Looking great Iain

Martin

 

Nice build, in the region of 500bhp with that turbo?

 

Not for now Paul, decided against it at this stage as I understand the gains are relatively small for the cost and work involved, when compared to everything else left to do.

Thanks Pete

Cheers Martin
