lol, well fair enough steve-o and paul, I still say you guys are lazy. shit even F1 teams use gravity to put their fuel in!!! but you guys need pumps? maybe an easy idea would be a simple gerry can stand? hold the can at the correct height, would flow a hell of a lot faster than a pump rig... would be hands free once you lift the can up, and let the good times flow....

still each to their own. i need the exercise I get from occasionally lifting up a 20kg can and holding it for 30 seconds or so. :)

LOL. It came in handy this week. Draining fuel from a car which you couldn't turn the engine on. Through the boot and suck away. We got a multi on it.... 10.5 V at the pump terminals. Hmmm. Shorter cables with a possiblilty of doubling them up or a thicker cable with a 12 V rated switch, not a 240V. V 2.0 in progress ;)

I thought about a stand before this, but all the stands that I was thinking about had the same problem of being too big when packed away in the car when driving somewhere but the fuel pump is just that, a pump and some lines all of which easily fit into one of those enviro bags you get from coles :)

Time to shorten the wires, get slightly larger ID tubing and then finally mount it so it doesnt look to pov spec

paul has guns to hold 100kg of e85 - stevo on the other hand...hmmm

HA!

beerbaron - u cracked me up with your comment of f1 teams using gravity fed jerry cans, very true & very funny

lol, i'm reading that marko thinks he can take steve-o in a bout of greco roman wrestling... happy to referee if needed...

just don't fart when you are locked in some kind of gay choker hold. it's not polite and will get you disqualified. and no john hoppa type finger pointing pls.

this is what I envisage. marko v steve-o. who can tell where one man ends and the other begins? beautiful it's own disturbing way...

hi nathan - house reno's is taking up too much of my time, im always thinking about this damn pump though & very keen to see how it performs.

the good news is that i did sell my old surge which had 2 x 044's & also sold my intank 044.

i also need to determine what pump is currently running intank in my gtr - i should just ask my mate who had this mod done 15yrs ago (i think its a nismo)

Back from the Dead..

what in tank pump would be best to use on a R33 300-400rwkw running E85

Aeromotive 340 Stealth inline and deatschwerks pump look the goods but would they keep up for a car on E85 say 350Kw and boost max of 25Psi?

They look like they can for 98 but will the flow be enough for E85?

(currently have a Walbro 255 HP? which i don't think will cut it.. could i be wrong?)

i believe the Aeromotive 340 pumps dont like E85 ...i have heard of a few failures of them when using e85, shame because when i saw them i was hoping i could use them also.

Looks like 044 wins again.

    • I don't know it is due to that. It could just be due to load on track being more than a dyno. But it would be nice to rule it out. We're talking a fraction of a second of pulling ~1 degree of timing. So it's not a lot, but I'd rather it be 0... Thicker oil isn't really a "bandaid" if it's oil that is going to run at 125C, is it? It will be thicker at 100 and thus at 125, where the 40 weight may not be as thick as one may like for that use. I already have a big pump that has been ported. They (They in this instance being the guy that built my heads) port them so they flow more at lower RPM but have a bypass spring that I believe is ~70psi. I have seen 70psi of oil pressure up top in the past, before I knew I had this leak. I have a 25 row oil cooler that takes up all the space in the driver side guard. It is interesting that GM themselves recommend 0-30 oil for their Vette applications. Unless you take it to the track where the official word is to put 20-50w oil in there, then take that back out after your track day is done and return to 0-30.
    • Nice, looks great. Nice work getting the factory parts also. Never know when you'll need them.
    • Thanks @jtha7 I will have a look around tomorrow but it is a prick of a spot. These are some photos i tried taking 
    • I take it that the knock retard is from bearings tapping a little tune? Thicker oil is a fragile bandaid. You need a much bigger oil cooler and probably the bigger pump being discussed.
    • Hi @Chupapy i had several leaks from coolant pipes being corroded, i also had one leak on back of the head onto transmission. For me that leak was from the turbo water line. Follow the line to the back of the head The hose and metal pipe had perished these are the best pics I took of it at the time
