Is this catch can going to be big enough for my setup welding two -12 fittings on it one in middle and one at bottom and 2 lines from yhat running to top of sump.

Its a split tank that was already on the car it has window washers and oil the other side as you can see .

[danny14]

Fitted my greedy oil cooler on drivers side today had to do a little modification to mounting bracket because i no longer have stock intercooler ,still need to fit up all the lines I had to remove stock bovs

Now in the instructions for the kit it has trust bovs fitted the stock bovs will not fit with the cooler I yhat location seen as though im running a single turbo do I need 2 bovs ? Or just fit 1 in its place if so what type im not into the wanky bov noise .....

I got the stock bovs to fit but outlet pipe sits abit low and inner guard fouls on it cant win ha ha

You only really need to drain it to the sump if you're going to be doing some circuit work. In that case two -12 breathers of the cam covers to the top of the can and either one -8 or bigger drain at the bottom of the can to the top of the sump. If you want to let the crankcase vent from the sump you can add a second line from the top of the sump to the top of the can. Even if you don't plan to do track work I'd be welding all of the extra fittings to the catch can and sump while it's apart so if the day does come where you need them it's an easy job

Also keep in mind if the car will be doing a lot of street k's the drain is going to mean more frequent oil changes due to all the condensation on short trips.

any update?

[danny14]

Hey guys been very busy with my new buisiness but head is complete sitting in nz ready to send to rob amd my bottom end is also complete rob is just waiting for head

With fuel setup is a 2.5 litre catch can good enough for my powrr figure with 2 bosch 044s ex and 1 internal ?

Rob has fitted 2 -12 fittings to sump so I can run one to bottom of catch can and one to middle of catch can and I already have my 2 -10 lines running from top of catch can to each rocker cover

Can anyone answer my question about the suge tank setup ^^^^^^

[Ben C34]

The size of of the surge tank will have have no impact on how much power the fuel system is capable of,it is only going to effect the surge resistance of it.

Having said that I would say it will be fine. You can get away with no surge tank depending on fuel tank level.

Can't wait to see this run soon!

[danny14]

Yes will be 2 months away I would think head and bottom end is completed in nz

[danny14]

Ok im noe up to the stage of doing fuel setup and new electronic gauges what are some good gauges to purchase that are well priced Im looking at removing the stock ones in the centre of the dash and replacing with new ones well 2 of them anyways

Problem with small capacity surge tanks is they heat soak quickly, my custom one is 8.5ltr and I am looking into a new bigger one as it starts to heat soak fairly quick

If not track car twin intank it with either 044s or Walbro E85 pumps and carry 1/2 tank min for track use and you won't have an issue

Breathing from the sump is ok for a street car but if you do it for a track car the catch can will quiet quickly over fill and make a mess of your engine bay, especially if you have breathers in the can it self, run a line from the bottom of the catch can to sump by all means but put a one way valve in it to allow oil in to sump but not vise versa

[bigmikespec]

Better off having the return from the rail going straight back to the main tank not into the surge.

[danny14]

It will be more a track car but streeted aswell so what 2.6 l surge tank not good enough with the twin 044s and and 1 in tank 044 ..........

[XKLABA]

2.6ltr is fine if you do it this way, you just have to make sure the intank pump/s out flow the main pumps

That's the same sort of useage I'm doing, so no 2.6 will heat soak quiet quickly and you be pumping heated fuel into the engine, 2 x 044s will turn the fuel around a lot faster from the engine then the 1 044 intank can flush the heated fuel from the surge tank

[bigmikespec]

2.6ltr is fine if you do it this way, you just have to make sure the intank pump/s out flow the main pumps

Should do as there is no pressure.

New setup will be biggest electric Weldon out of main tank to surge and a Weldon mech pump to the rail, woo.

[XKLABA]

I've got the weldon 2025 as my main and the walbro E85 as my lift, I hate the Weldon, it is the loudest farkin thing I have ever heard , the pump is rubber mounted the bracket that holds the pump is rubber mounted the plate that the bracket is mounted to is rubber mounted and there is a price of -12 Kevlar braided between the pump and surge tank, am going to custom a 10ltr with twin walbro E85 intanks, cause street car > race car

[frostyboy]

I had a Weldon killa pump due to the fact the motor is seperate from were the fuel flows through but way to noisey and annoying for street duties

[Piggaz]

Mick, your pump is loud. Too farken loud.

That is all.

[danny14]

Im still deciding on fuel system and who I get to make it I just want a full kit that will go into my gtr with all hoses made anyone know if this is possible ?

[danny14]

I know its been a long time but progress is coming along my engine is finished at rips in nz i also have purchased a full fuel setup from rips aswell to fit in the rig
