The car is ready for the rest of the turbo kit. I reused part of the kit the ohio boys made when Turley owned the car. Ron Shearer will finish it up. Car is setting to high but until I get the lead in it to make race weight and corner balance it doesn’t matter. http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc122/koolrayz/DSC06849.jpg http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc122/koolrayz/DSC06850.jpg http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc122/koolrayz/DSC06851.jpg http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc122/koolrayz/DSC06852.jpg http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc122/koolrayz/DSC06853.jpg

You can sump the platic one, I did it on my car and it worked fine. I can even sell you the one I sumped cheap or at least show you what I did.

Stock pickups are a known issue, hard launching, stopping and cornering = oil starvation which is what it appears you have experienced.

Nice build! Great looking car.

What oil pan and oiling system are you using?

Thanks!

Great build! cant wait to see the final package.

Just man up and get the drill out

Congrats!

And Thorne is :gabe:

Love the pictures of the new fuel system.

single -12 off of the valley cover with the LS7 dry sump system on the last motor. Before that I was only making 6-700 on nitrous and it vented fine with the three -6 lines

If two -10's isnt doing it you have problems

Are you sure you have the crankcase ventilated properly. A car like yours should have at least one -12 or two -8 venting

I have done this on multiple setup without issue

I thought attacking for sale threads were against the rules

Colt????????????? Just kidding, good luck with the new build Jamie

Bump for a good deal. Nice call on the cable drive.

I did run a 60# base pressure. I bought these Moran 235's over the winter. http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc122/koolrayz/DSC05548-1.jpg

I got to wondering and found the flow chart for the 2345 http://www.weldonracing.com/~weldonracing/ul-pdfs/43-2345-A.pdf @ 45# the weldon flows 230 gallon per hour. The A1000 is rated in pound per hour as per this jegs link 700# per hour. http://www.jegs.com/p/Aeromotive/Aeromotive-A1000-Fuel-Pumps/750073/10002/-1 Using C-16 with a specific gravity of .735 that equals a pound per gallon of 6.174. 700# per hour divided by 6.174 pound per gallon would equal 113.37 gallon per hour per pump. Bottom line is two A1000 "should" put out what the 2345 does. What injector are you using? 160# injectors have a total flow using 8 injectors at 3 bar pressure of 1280 # per hour. This should be the minumum injector you would be looking at and the injector I have used in the past.

old setup was 12v, new setup is 16v Look for a used one, that's how I got mine. They are industructable and can be rebuilt up in cleveland at the factory.

I ran the 8.29 with E-98 and the setup I listed at 3750# raceweight. Im sure there are other setups that will work for you. I know this one worked for me

-12 feeding a Weldon 2345 single -10 to firewall, "Y" to two -8 feeding the rails. Two -8 to regulator single -8 return. This is my setup and I know of people running in the 7.40 range with this setup on race gas. your duty cycle in the 88% range is an issue if you want to make more power. You can raise the base but sometimes it makes very little difference as the flow drops when the pressure raises. This usually only helps if the system is restricted by small lines or injectors that are a lot smaller than the pumps capacity. You need to look at the injector # rating and the pumps # per hour rating.

Ya it is a corvette not a lambo :gabe:
