The idea is to fit them without hacking a big hole into the car.

Quality work by TRPs work experience kid.

Plus, who'd be crazy enough to line a nice sharp metal edge sitting to your fuel line?

That's a pathetic job and you paid them for it.

It is black sharpie pen, the rectangle.

Not a hole.

Even if they are bulkhead fittings, they're not fitted right. 

See the top one here, if that's a bulk head, that flat ring should be firmly against the bulkhead mating surface. 

With this there'll be less tension and over time with vibrations it will move, and start to give. 

It should be a specified diameter circular hole, then they cleanly fit into them.

The sarcasm was clearly missed in my previous post. You'd see f**king light through it if it was a hole.

And you say you have an eye for detail.

 

Not if there's no light on the other side or those lines come out through the bottom of something that covers over the hole... 

*groan* I'm reached my pain threshold for the day, off to enjoy my evening with a few bevvies.

When I get back I'm happy to talk about taking some bets on what gets Benny first. 

  • Catastrophic fire. 
  • Crash due to suspension pick up points rusting through or something similar. 
  • Engine failure due to stock rods. 
  • Crash due to shit driving.

Have fun gents.

Are there teflon bulkhead washers? 

**edit

Was asked to also post the following:

Of course there is washers. The reason you don’t see them is because we didn’t use tiny fuel fittings like you did. The big boys use -8AN. I’ll be over 500kw in no time. P.s I couldn’t even fit a ham sandwich in that surge tank mate.

What if he’s vegan and doesn’t want a ham sandwich

Err, if you used washers, we'd see them. The washer gets bigger when the fitting gets bigger just like with a nut and bolt. Washer is always larger diameter than the nut/fitting. Visibly you have none. :)

Benny, you had some "none mint" items be pointed out in your "mint" car, the photos speak greater words than those you're typing. You have once again become the laughing stock of SAU. You claim one thing, and post photographic evidence stating the opposite. 

good work son, keep it up, I and the other boys haven't had as good of a laugh like this in a while :)

Invisible washers??

I do like the ham sandwich as a volume measurement, pretty handy when planning a fuel system. Fuel lines need to be able to fit a kalamata olive through them to be any good, have you checked that yet?

I’ll take detail photos once I get my GoPro Hero 7 black back. I’ll wind it up to 4K resolution. 

Not putting an olive to check my fuel system. The build is to F1 standards not DIY pal

LOL, F1 standards. You funny f**ker.

Mine flows 600 kalamata olives per millisecond. 

Still only making 250kalamata watts at the wheels so, so the other 350 olives per millisecond are just getting cooked being pumped to a heat source and back. Should I add a cooling rack in so that I can eat the cooked olives safely or just blow on them before consuming?

Haha I’ll float the car to Adelaide and line you up on the circuit mate. We can put $5000 on it to make it worthwhile. You’ll probably get crossed up trying to match my late braking & end up in a tyre barrier, so when I win you shall refer to me as “The Don” and comment my thread admitting the car is a museum piece 

The more you blokes yap, the quicker I’ll have a 9280 on the car. Ill be in excess of 300kmh before Matt, MLR & Dan even get to 100.

And once I’ve taken the pink slips I’ll request my username to be changed to ElPinkSlipCollector.

Why are you collecting safety certificates? They're only worth like $30. Can you not afford them after your fuel system ate your ham sandwich for lunch?

    • Yeah nice idea, you mean to suction it to the gauges? I hadn't thought of that.
    • A few suggestions: Do you have the option of retarding your exhaust cam gear to bring the power band over to the left? VCT would be turned off after you make peak torque, you see the power/torque will decay faster with it left on all the way to the limiter Once VCT is turned off, you'll find the motor will take a bit more timing being ramped in Send its mum, more boost! Of course, depends on your exhaust pressure.
    • Tow a boat... people won't know wtf is going on 🤣 
    • I was back on the dyno again yesterday after completely revamping my methanol injection system. I was making 440kw at 19psi. Great, this is more then I was making last summer with my old meth system at that pressure, and I figured it would be smooth sailing up to 30+psi. We continued increasing from there and by 25psi, I had only hit 455kw. Dyno sadly lost utility power at this point and I left. We seemed to be on course to hit the same power wall as last summer (477kw@27psi). This is a built RB25 S1 stroked to a 2.8. Built and ported head with Kelford 272/262 cams. Precision 6466 Turbo. Tuner last year believed the power wall is a mix of RPM limitations (Hydro lifters/Limit set at 7600RPM) and fueling. With my new meth system, we're seeing zero knock now but it still won't go up.  What else can I do at this point? Here's my train of thought.  - It's clear from the dyno graph that I would easily make power to 8500+RPM but I'm limited to 7600RPM. I could risk increasing my limiter, but hydro lifters have me worried. What are my options here besides going NEO head or solid lifter conversion? I'm rocking a 1.05AR turbine on my 6466. Would dropping down to a .84 help shift that power down in anyway? - We're only seeing roughly a 30kw difference at the top end with VCT on or off. Is this normal? I want to confirm VCT is working properly. - Should I look into other cam options?  - Should I just keep increasing boost and see if she wakes up later on? I would expect to hit 600rwkw around 35psi with my 6466.
