Here I am stuck in UCLA- ugly corner of lower alabamma- (no disrepect intended to those who live here- its just not home for me) working on Katrina storm claims.
3 weeks of 14 hr days. Insurance adjuster. The storm bonus should cover cost of some used carb manifolds, throttle bodies, injectors, cross bar linkage, and some fuel rail bits and pieces. What to buy? Where to buy? What size to buy? Jenvy, TWM, Redline/weber, C.B., others? They'd be going a basically stock 2.0 with a Kerry Hunter header, euro p/c's, stock cam/valves/springs, and stand alone ECU system. The car runs SCCA DSP, so no changes to the long block allowed. I'd like to size the throttle bodies and injectors to be big enough to move on to a Jakester 2316 in a year or 2, when I save up some more $$ for his kit. Planning on the linkage from triad west, as it seems most complete, has had good reviews, and uses lots of heim joints. I like that idea. Any thoughts? Any real world experience? Thanks! |

wow. sorry for asking. I guess 10,001 is in order, as I somehow missed the first 10,000 times... I was planning on doing a little head fin removal work as Chris F. did to perfectly install his CHT sensors under the plugs, and place a sensor under #3 of course. Was planning to do this as part of the throttle body/EFI upgrade, to give a better signal to the ECU. Looks like I'll be adding a CHT gauge as well. I don't want to have to live thru 10,002...
Bellcrank good enough for you, bellcrank good enough for me. |
