12-10-10, 11:39 GMT+10#21 alex, congrats on the power, with a few more correct parts in place should b good for 7-750 odd kw, but my very reliable engine builder in sydney told me that on e85 ur limited to 32-35 psi on e85 and 9000rpm, anything over that u start pitting n destroying plugs which causes big break down and poss engine destruction... have u been told or heard this, i can give u his number... p.s dont go another 044, get a magnafuel pump or sumfin along those lines... now u need a rear end, hint hint nudge nudge

12-10-10, 12:59 GMT+10#23 Yea am looking at some magnafuel pumps 2x 1300hp ones should do the trick ,
will we be only putting in prob another 5psi and using the higher octane E85 and then hopefully crack the 1000rwhp mark..
As for rear end, quotes are on the way

its rated at 2000hp at 14 volts and i think 2500 at 16 volts from memory.

Wasn't stirring any pot, wasn't even aimed at you or anyone actually, just
usually ANY drag or dyno thread in the s.a section usually turns into a trainwreck

What type of voltage drop would 2 magnafuels/weldons place on the alternator/charging system i wonder? At some point its going to place a load on the ignition side of things. personally i'd go the weldon 2345A and when that runs out, mechanical pump time...

13-10-10, 20:56 GMT+10#33 when i did the reserch on whayt pump to go i opted for a aeromotive item the areo and the magna are the only pumps i read about that can suport 2000hp on a car with a turbo/charger, with either of the above power aid they can support 2500
the reason i opted for the areonotive over the magna weas that mine came with voltage control so the pump isnt operating at max when ur crusing the street

13-10-10, 20:59 GMT+10#34 Yeh with the weldon, you have to buy it as a separate item
cheers

14-10-10, 08:20 GMT+10#36 Great work mate, must be happy with that sort of power I have been thinking about E85 for awhile now but just unsure if I would get any gains from it, but all said and done thats very impressive cant wait to see it at the next VL Nats again.
by the way was that thru the auto? if it was thats even better
