Toby Posted May 9, 2008 Report Posted May 9, 2008 cheers only thing is its tops out at 88mph at 6k oh well Sounds like fuel starvation - I used to get that at 7k on a red top pump. I changed the fuel pipe through the car, problem solved. Is it ok in 1st, 2nd and 3rd? What pump you running?
Tom Posted May 10, 2008 Report Posted May 10, 2008 what diff you running mate? and if you don't mind me asking how much did it cost? oh and well done that is good power
timmy4doors Posted May 10, 2008 Author Report Posted May 10, 2008 toby- ive only driven it in 1st so im not sure about the rest i now it has 8mm copper pipe as fuel lines, standard mechanical pump tom- its supposed to be a 3:7 but the man at sanspeed thinks its a 4:1 or similar, how much was what the rolling road or the car
Ratters Posted May 11, 2008 Report Posted May 11, 2008 well done mate having it set up is more important anyway. what's the spec?
Toby Posted May 11, 2008 Report Posted May 11, 2008 toby- ive only driven it in 1st Are you saying it does 88mph in 1st? Why not change gear- that could solve the problem
timmy4doors Posted May 11, 2008 Author Report Posted May 11, 2008 knew i was doing somthing wrong, the man on the dyno told me 88 i havent driven it far only down the road. ratters- 2.0 pinto twin 40s kent rl 31 cam head has been breathed upon with porting and polishing by colin ashton veriner pulley.cant wait till round 2 now to give it death!!!
