blow off Donating Members 199 Member For: 16y 9m 24d Gender: Male Location: Airlie Beach - FNQ Posted 09/12/10 11:02 AM Share Posted 09/12/10 11:02 AM With turning the Ute up another issue that had to be addressed was the fuel system. First thing was to know what fuels you want to run and their consumption rates, eg methanol uses 2.4 times what 98 does..and what power is desired. With running a mix of fuels for different applications and still being a street Ute the cell is about 80lts with the surge section being about 20lts with internal baffles and the original sender unit installed so the trip computer still works and the breather. Mounting points were critical due to tail shaft ect, the other option was to have everything in the tray..Went 4 bosch 044 pumps which are boost and tune activated, -10 lines to the 2000hp Turbosmart reg and Process West rail with the return being -8 with speedflow fittings. Due to using 1600cc injectors a versafuel emc has been wired into each injection and the main computer. Have been told we can get away with up to 800-1000cc injectors without the versafueler. To drain the fuels from the system 2 snap lock fittings are used with the rear having it's own pump. The photos tell the story too, any questions/quires PM me, Cheers Chad.

About 72 Hrs to install.Yea should do the job for what the goal is...Fast Street Ute and a Drag/Track/Dyno car running up to 4 different fuels. I know exactly what I really would like out of it for times on the strip but getting the power down in a ute has already proven hard in full race trim with a mates Ute (Ba XR6T) who got high 9's. We will have the power and are working on a way to transfer this..After a cage/different diff gears and maybe a hollinger box (after track times are in) and few other small items that should be it have already gone through 2 girl friends with this build but we all know what it's like with the quest for a goal. and getting carried away.
