This is the engine pics of a 1uz black Ford Capri drag car that I saw at Summernats in Jan 09. Big $ spent, $6000 worth of braided fuel lines alone. Engine pics are nice.

Fuel line I wasn't sure if you were still allowed to use copper line, but sounds good! Does that mean I can just run the 1/2" plumbing copper line - it's pretty easy to shape and will have excellent flow - I'm using a genuine Bosch 044 which is rated at up to 300lph and 72psi.

Mr No Bling! Top effort Rod, let us all know if you head to WSID - I've been to the drags there on a Wednesday night and you get a great mix of machinery - looking forward to the 'no bling beast' ripping up the track with all four spinning! BTW - you can check your temp easily with a...

Eh fired up Thanks Justen. Started on fuel, no gas yet, my research found that I need to spend about $6000 to setup a 'good' gas injection system to develop the power, so I'm concentrating on getting the car built, painted and registered, fitting the gas system later. Any hints on where I get...

G'day all! I fired up my Eh yesterday - wired up the EMS8860 Ecu and it worked - first try! Scared the sh*t out of me as it's just running a dual 2.5" system to the cats - however not as noisy as you would think. The 8860 was easy to wire up and the software was is intuitive to use. I have a...

custom suspensions Get them xrayed as well, your life (and families) may depend on them!

accurate measurements Okay - this may be obvious to some, what is the best way to measure centre to centre accurately with large items like bell housings? I'd hate to get the measurements wrong and make a bellhousing only to find it did not fit. Edz

I bought one of ebay inverter tigs, 1st one blew up, but made sure it had a good warranty before I bought it, returned it and the seller credited me back the money because the whole batch was bad. Bought one like this - pic below, with a foot switch and haven't looked back. Small, light and very...

Alumium Welds that go from good to bad in a blink of the eye >I made an all new trolley to carry both the Mig and the Tig machines. Not >every weld came out looking nice, (strange thing that is, one weld is looking >very nice the next looks rubbish... how come) tig welding is very hard to do...

I just bought a set of 5mm Top Gun LPG Max 300 leads for Aus$235 from an auto parts supplier. They are a direct fit under the original covers and match the original leads as they have all the original style connectors and stainless steel fittings. The resistance is lower than normal leads which...

Actually, you could still use it, you could use two SPST (N.O.) relays or just wire up a Single Pole Double Throw relay (NO/NC relay - about $12). When less than 90, the nc temp sensor would pull the relay open, when over 90 and the nc temp sensor opens, the relay would close, turning on the...

8" rims Actually it is legal in NSW, VSI09 pre 1973, can be between 6-8" on a car of 1000 -1200kg.

Flex plate to Torque Converter bolts are M9 x 12mm

Any details on that, I was just going to guess? I'm in the middle of wiring mine right now, just got it back with the new software upgrade from EMS. I was going to use the following, assuming the pin wiring is correct on the ISC plug: ISC ----------- Crown...

ems 8860 update Hi How are you going with the install for this? I'm wiring mine up at the moment after getting the info to wire up all the standard sensors, igniters and even the 6 wire ISC. Happy to pass on what I've found and we may be able to share ideas. Cheers Ed

8 injector drivers I'm using the Aussie EMS 8860 as it handles turbos, 8 sequential Injectors, 8 Cops, engine protection etc and had good reviews from others I know. It also works with all the orginal toyota sensors and 6wire isc. Around $1600 if you shop around with free software uogrades as...

Good site in the US to buy new injectors? Not sure what they are like, but these guys list new performance injectors that look like they will fit a 1uz for $59 ea US (440 - 630 cc/min), better than buying seconhand and getting them cleaned. Lex - they may be worth checking out and letting the...

Good site with injector test data Found this site which lists a lot of the injectors talked about above. Their data is based on actual testing at 3 bar, supports the figures given here plus lots of helpful injector pics http://www.witchhunter.com/injectordata1.php4. They also have an...
