  1. Sunoco off Hamilton's where I get mine from, they have a couple different VP fuels on hand as well as Cam2, both of which are leaded. E85 makes power and keeps it "streetable" since it's a pump fuel, but you do use more because science. Unfortunately, you can't have your cake and eat it too.

  3. The car won't be there, but I'll be milling around as always.

    Welcome, Doug, I'm excited to see the car sometime.
  5. Once I'm done with school in October and can go back to working as much as possible, I'll be open to doing custom jobs and would be willing to build something like that.
  6. I'm glad to have been able to actually publish some data on the subject, there were a few people doing them but never any information released on them. I haven't considered a manifold like you described. Rather than do something like that, I'd more than likely release a tri-Y design to the market.
  7. Updates from two manifolds I've been working on:

  10. I received three orders in the last month or so, it seems to be picking up but it's an unpredictable market.
  11. A few new pics since it's been awhile:
  12. Nice car, Mike, should be fun with what you have planned for it.
  13. Not the car, but I pulled my mock up engine out of the car and put all the big external parts on it and snapped a pic. Pretty happy with how it's coming out:

  16. I'm pretty sure it's somewhere in one of my threads.
  17. A proper electrode grind and keeping the electrode a reasonable distance from the weldment have always worked for me. Gas flow wise, I was only flowing 35cfh for that weld, which is only 5cfh higher than what I normally weld at. The two collector halves act as a valley and, since argon is heavier than air, the shielding gas pools in that area to provide good gas coverage. Let me know if you guys have any other questions.
  18. Ask and you shall receive. I'm not opposed to welding cages if I'm in the mood, but I don't have the tooling to bend them nor do I plan on getting it. Tri-Y wrapped up: A few pics of some pieces on my car: And a couple weld pics. Sometimes you have to hang the electrode the whole way out:
  19. That's a straight business pass.
