Some of you may be aware of my 911 engine builds, but...I've decided on building a T4-1911.....I was quickly going down the rabbit hole with bigger/better, but then reminded myself of one of the primary goals......and that is to help configure the RHD T'body design that I am using on the 911 builds... to be used for the 4 cylinder engines...starting with the Type 4. Parts are arriving and here is a sneak peek at the 1st units, mounted to manifolds.......
Stay tuned as parts for the build are arriving daily regards, al |

42mm, big for a 1911, really curious to see how it will run when it's done.

Yes...but...too big and you make vacuum issues worse, add a big duration cam and you're running in alphaN/TPS only. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) Might as well cam the hell out of it as you are most likely going to have very little resolution with the vacuum signal and have to run alphaN anyways Ran 42mm Jenveys on a 2270 with a cam optimized for lower RPM/very good vacuum and was still seeing 0 vacuum at roughly 30% throttle off idle . They were a pretty good match for that motor, running in MS hybrid mode split the map almost 50/50. Running on a 1911 I wouldn't be surprised if you wind up seeing no vacuum across 70%+ of operating conditions. |
