Rbdirty30 Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 Just a suggestion on the rims as a cheap alternative, what about a 15 steel band to what ever width you desire and use a ford steel rim centre, that way you can weld the centre to band at what ever set you want.

2rismo Posted August 23, 2015 Author Share Posted August 23, 2015 Going to need more injector than what I first thought so I've got six Precision 225s and six more Precision 550s coming for it. They hurt the back pocket but they're worth it and a proven combination with methanol. 1 Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/448268-275-radial-r33-drag-build/page/8/#findComment-7591954 Share on other sites More sharing options...
k_d Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 Im assuming that measurement for the injectors is lbs not cc? This thing should be a rocketship thats for sure!!!

Otherwise it'd be about 400hp worth on methanol. 1 Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/448268-275-radial-r33-drag-build/page/8/#findComment-7592712 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did i miss what size turbo your running? It's a Precision Gen-2 8891. Rated around about 1600hp. I'm looking for about 1200-1250 from it. If it makes anything like 1000kW I'll be rapt.

2rismo Posted August 25, 2015 Author Share Posted August 25, 2015 That's precisely why I'm not resetting the date. This is a once in a lifetime build and it will take as long as it takes.

Neil Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 Hey mate after looking at their website it looks like this one, so 3 Gals. It's a bit dirty and has the usual scratches that would polishout. The 3 straps don't have the factory bolts but thats an easy fix. 3 Gallon - 16” tall x 9” dia.08-0009 3 Gallon Single scavenge inlet, -12 AN Female Fittings.08-0010 3 Gallon Dual scavenge inlet, -12 An Female Fittings.
