Coming from below would mean that the nice cool inlet air has to pass close to the manifold and turbo. Not good.

Runner length is fundemental to achieving good VE. I would make them even longer if I could.

Could a moderator please move this post to the EFi section, as it will be a while till I get prices sorteed. Thanks.

Paul, i was trying to calculate how many cc's per port i would need for say 200 and 250bhp but i have no idea how to calculate the pulse widths of said injectors, what sort of figures have you been working too?

Yes i moved to the darkside *happy*

You can now get high impedance 1600cc/min pencil injectors, but I'm not sure of the performance at low pulse widths.


The 1600cc ones, usually shorties are gas injectors they modify for petrol use. Not ideal and why Injector Dynamics stopped using them.

They only sell the ID1000 and ID2000 now.

I recently fitted a set of 2000's to a car as the 1000's were too small. And quite amazed to see it still idles happily at stioch !! Very impressed with them.
That's with Motec

2000's only come in the shorty style, but usually have adaptors for the normal length fitments.

As for the original item. What about making a wooden or similar prototype and having them cast ? They'd still require some final machining, but might work out a lot cheaper.

I'm in Burgundy at the moment, so do not have access to my records.

The build guide gives you some guidance. The Miglia is using about 220 lb/min per port for that sort of power.

Paul,

Do you remember what BSFC and duty cycle you were using to come up with that number. That seems to be about 50% more than what I would expect.

It was based on the 998Ti that have 120hp from 960cc/min per port with a max 8ms pulse

Paul,
I could be interested in a pair of these. Depending on the cost....

In sorting out the CAM software for the billett bosses, Sturgeo has found a full working version of the SW Flow Simulation software.

Now if I can get him away from the football, we might soon have a full transient flow simulation based on the data from the engine simulation.

Stay tuned folks.

Simulation video:

Pretty poor video, but the SW built in renderer refused to oblige so we have had to improvise.

You can see the firing order 1, 3, 4, 2.

Have you made any progress with these Paul or are you waiting to get your mill up and running first?

Tried to get quotes from 2 local companies but without success.

So pushing ahead with converting my mill to CNC and making them myself. Just placed the orders for the parts for the long travel conversion.

Oh, and we are working on a carb version of the manifold.

Good stuff, thanks for the update.

Where would the carb go then - in place of the plenum or would you retain the plenum?

The plenum is fundemental to the design, EFI or carb.

Carb would go above the transfer case.

Latest update on this is that the Mill is now converted to CNC and we are working on the G-Code to start making a couple of prototype injector bosses.

We are just going to use the Mill in 3-axis for now. It will mean making a jig to hold the part, but will use far less material. We will also be using a piece of 38mm OD beaded pipe, "Durafix" welded in for the inlet connection, so much the same as I made for the Mig.

First batch will have 2-injector pockets as that should be enough for up to 200hp with a couple of 800cc/min pencil injectors in each. It will mean a single fuel rail and simpler fuel delivery pipework.

3-injector pocket version will follow if anyone is interested, let me know.

If anyone is still interested, please PM me and we can discuss your requirements.

I'm also working on the fuel rails and plenums and will be ordering materials soon.

speaking of fuel rails, if your ordering parts, as in them universal lengths of rail then i would want some of that on its own if you have any spare. (dash 8)

I'm already well stocked with Dash 6 rail which is plenty big enough.
