Gertrude got some new shoes. Rota RB 15x7's with 205/50/15's. I've only had about 5 min behind the wheel around town, but they feel good!

Question - am assuming this is a fuel cell and this is a race car?

 

Just curious, love it over all and nice work.

Cheers,

Thanks.  Technically, I think it's just a fuel tank, it doesn't contain any foam.  Also, it's a street car (wannabe race car?)

 

Overkill?  Probably, but it does have a few advantages, it's bigger (15gal vs stock 12?gal), and it allows me to install the EFI pump in the ideal location (per the instructions, all the way back)

 

It was also slightly cheaper to buy the metal and make the support for this tank vs. buying a whole new trunk floor since mine was rotted out.

Totally get it - and a fun maker challenge as well! I can absolutely relate.

 

Thanks for the additional info..

What adapter / plug did you use to fit the quick disconnect air lines into the carb? I just have a piece of foam filtering that air right now and would love to connect it into the filtered air source.

 A little known and much abused fact about  Webers is the float bowl vents on DCOE should be vented to the atmosphere not the filter so they get steady air pressure for the emulsion tubes to meter  not the variable pressure in the filter. Very nice installation using the stock style linkage.

Did some inventory... getting really close to having all the parts I need!

A friend just recently had problems getting his mid throttle jetted - after spending hours on the dyno he called VGS who are the importer and most competent resource for Weber within Germany - they recommended having the fuel bowls connected to the Airbox. After he did so the car ran much better under partial throttle.

It's pretty easy to pull the plug when I'm on the dyno, but it would be a lot of hassle getting it set up in a hurry. We'll see once Im on the dyno.

I took one like that 10mm OD carb side cut down to a couple of mm, 6mm tube OD.

To connect to the carb I used some generic rubber plug where I stamped the hole myself

What setup are you planning to use? Looks like MS? I've got a Speeduino ready to go in. Just need a few more sensors and some fabrication. Will be prepping the wiring system first.

Fabbed up a solution to the spinning stock knob. Welded a tube and threads onto a stock bottom section. No way this will spin now! May or may not need the set nut with the delrin ball knob. Hopefully the replacement 4 speed and the new shift bushings give a more direct feel.
