Glad you got her back and some cash on top. :ohdamn: that guy's marriage sounds like a cluster f***.So what do you have left on the eagle?

love the detail here. Though I'm curious why you masked off all of the bolt holes etc on the knuckle. Are you worried about hole tolerances or fastening over the coating?

gingium on youtube built a RWD 1g DSM. Motor and trans swapped to the rear with a custom subframe/suspension. Firewall right behind the driver.

I made this template for 1-1/2 inch schedule tubing to cutout merge collectors without fancy tools for my compound turbo setup. This was the first test and it's just a 12degree merge. I think i'll design another one with a 12/15 split angle so that it fits the rectangular flange better...

they max out at 400, so you need a bigger turbo if you're not happy where it is.... what are you making right now?You could probably push 400 on E85 with the 16g

Sounds like you need a 16g

Well, it looks like you have the engine in the right way so that's half the battle!How's the room look for a turbo up against the firewall?

Plan is to use the cheaper fittings (Kurt brand) and some kurt sae 100r7 hose which has a nylon core. Crimping won't be an issue with this standard stuff and nylon is e85 safe. The hose is only $3/ft instead of the $5/ft for PTFE so I'll probably save quite a bit overall for a full fuel setup...

I called the local places places and its $5 to do a hose so its kinda border line on the pricing side. Problem is they need to know how far to crimp and would probably be guessing with these fittings.Edit: also jic 37deg fittings are the same as an fittings.

No, but I was planning on taking them to a local hydraulic shop... Shouldn't be too expensive but I should probably get a quote first as that will either make or break this idea.

I was looking into JIC fittings as an alternative to AN for a cheaper fuel setup that wont blow up in my face and found something kinda odd with the difference between fancy PTFE fittings and the standard hydraulic fittings.If you look at the links above, you'll see that the dimensions are the...

Nice Welding cast is always controversial.... What was your setup?Pic attached of the ceramic cup (with standard collet body) and the gas lense collet/glass cup I was using. Ceramic cup is size 6. cup was 12mm I think. About 10-15 CFH and no other changes besides swapping out collet/cup.I'm...

What kinda tig cups do you use? I have a WP26 torch and bought some ebay lenses (because surely they can't mess this up) but they don't work for crap. I ran the same gas CFH with a traditional ceramic cup and welded just fine then switched over to the lenses with the glass cups and it...

Check for boost leaks imo.

Pull the oil pan and take a look. It's possible water got in and rusted stuff together.
