    EFI Fuel System

    Peter, Here's an excerpt from my website: "Our solution was to design a surge tank that is filled from a low pressure pump located near each fuel tank. A high pressure fuel pump feeds from the bottom of the surge tank and circulates fuel around the rails to a fuel pressure regulator. Bypass...

    Painting headlight recesses

    Here's a picture of mine. I painted mine in a black satin finish. From what I've read the drivers complained of the reflection of the headlights off these surfaces mostly in the rain or fog at night. It basically created a halo that was hard to see through. I block sanded my recesses...

    GT40 Race Classification in the US

    Ron, You might look into vintage racing. I approached SVRA and was told the car wasn't really a vintage racer but since it was a GT40 (and we know what a crowd pleaser it is) they'd consider letting me run. The upside of this is two fold. SVRA rules state if you hit someone you get to pay...

    XtremeClassics - GTD and CAV splitter & sill ext.

    Re: XtremeClassics - GTD and CAV splitter & sill e Hey Lynn, It would be nice to check it against a KVA. I know the Roaring Forties nose is different still from the ERA or the GTD & CAV. Too many noses and too much development cost for short runs. I figure the first splitter for my...

    XtremeClassics - GTD and CAV splitter & sill ext.

    Re: XtremeClassics - GTD and CAV splitter & sill e Bill, If I set my front ride height at 5.5" and the rear at 6" the splitter clears the ground with the nose open. I have not been able to check this clearance on the GTD and CAV splitter yet. The sill extensions should be ready end of March...

    XtremeClassics - GTD and CAV splitter & sill ext.

    I am putting the finishing touches on the "plug" for the GTD and CAV front splitter and hope to have them in carbon fiber within 3 weeks. The ERA splitter can be seen here. The ERA splitter is similar in appearance to the GTD and CAV. But there are differences due to different cross-sections...

    GTD/CAV aero splitter question

    I asked the question and was given an answer but I'd like to double check with the forum. Since the CAV space frame was made under license from GTD, the front body sections are from the same original mold. Ja oder nein? Also I was told there is no change in body section between the CAV space...

    XtremeClassics new aero device

    Absolutely they are for sale. Splitter $850 USD Sill Extensions ~$750 USD for a pair (tentatively) Rear Diffuser $$$$ much more complex I haven't quite figured out how to package and ship the splitter yet. Labor in the DC area is not cheap. I may be able to find someone...

    Engine builder?

    Consider coasthigh.com I've found they offer considerable bang for the buck. The cost saving may offset shipping. I received a 50K mile warranty with my stroker which I thought was quite substantial. Marty handled my build and was always helpful when I needed extra information. I have no...

    Weber Fuel Return Line

    That's what I get for speed reading a post. I didn't catch the car just came out of storage. 1. Evaporating gas from an unused carb leaves a residue. This residue can eventually cause the moving parts to stick. It's best to run the carbs dry before storage. 2. Gas has a shelf life. I've...

    Weber Fuel Return Line

    Hey Neal, I guess my explanations get a bit convoluted sometimes. I just didn't want to come out and say returns are for EFI and not for carbs but that's what it comes down to. Sounds like you have tuning issues. Is there a Weber tuning expert anywhere near you? Alternatively you can buy a...

    Weber Fuel Return Line

    Neil, I think we're mixing our paradigms here. Forgive me if I've missed something but here's my take on this. Carb systems need 2-8 psi. Nice systems have a low pressure fuel pump and a pressure regulator between the carbs and the fuel pump. The fuel pump has a bypass circuit for when the...

    P-ayr Products Urethane engine blocks

    P-ayr scam update: P-ayr never disputed my claims to my credit card company. They simply tried to slip an unauthorized charge on my account without it being noticed months later. Dean, is there a reason your company is based in Leavenworth? Couldn't get out of town after your release? The...

    Top Gear - Clarkson drives the new GT

    Gary, Don't be so quick to say the GT will get dusted by the S7. Car & Driver has the GT smoking the 911 GT3 and the Ferrari Challenge. The GT's performance numbers put it the the range of the S7 and the Enzo. In fact C&D says the S7 is almost as fast as the GT with the GT being...

    XtremeClassics Headers advance look

    Kalun D, The collectors are from Burns Stainless. None better to be found, IMHO. Some here know there is a formula you can use to derive the theoretical optimal header tube length for any cam/timing/displacement/port size engine. Vince and the boys at Burns have their own formula for...
