Hi All
Thanks for the info
on the water pump gallery. I was going through some old files and guess
what I found. Should have looked there first! I have a new question for the
group. The size and shape of the plenum chamber. After looking at the
Mistral site (VERY NICE) I now have reservations about the size and shape
of plenum I was going to use. Originally I was going to manufacture one, box
shape and only 2 1/2" wide 3 1/2" high 8" long. Really didn't think it would be
big enough but made for a neat installation. Now im considering extending the
inlet runners completely over the engine and mount a tubular plenum approx 4"
dia 10" long. my manifold is very similar to one that I saw on this site, I
think it was mounted on an RV4 running duel throttle bodies. Mine is a turbo so
needs to be slightly different. Wish I could post a pic but my picture
album program wont compress them enough to post! ( maybe operator error) . I
have a few shots of the oil injection pump that ill be running that I tried
to post as well, its a modified electric version, with remote oil adaptor
that I got from Tracy.The pump is fully adjustable for what ever oil flow
you want.( no linkages and very simple).
Just got my confirmation from vans, QB 7 is on its
way. now only if Fred can supply the mount,( been on order for ages). Cant
wait to hang the engine.
cheers
Mick.
