Thank you. It's only a seventeen year project, so far, but I hope this will be the final phase. I will be glad to be able to ask further questions, and will definitely report results.
By the way, here's a link to the build log...
crerus75,
Thank you so much for your comprehensive answer. I've just learned a great deal.
I will have to look at my pressure regulator, to see if there is a vacuum port, on it.
On the next round of revisions, your suggestions will doubtless be utilized to the best of my ability. In this...
By the way, do you have contact info, for the folks who modify tanks? Somebody, on another forum, alerted me to the fact that Aeromotive have a product out, that they call Phantom, which is essentially a retrofit kit that sounds similar.
Best,
B.
Thanks for the pointers.
I will likely stick with the existing components, until I can afford to have a safety cage, built, and purchase a fire system, fresh restraints, and a proper fuel cell. Right now, budget is dictating a lot of decisions. When the Paxton/Aeromotive unit fails, I will...
Jay,
Thank you. Better safe than sorry, to protect the components makes good sense. I'll just put filters before and after each pump. The engine represents too much of an investment, to me, to destroy on being cheap. I will admit that I do resent every ounce of added weight.
As for the swirl...
Hello all,
All of the items listed with a part number, have been purchased. This still leaves me with a good number of questions.
Fuel System:
Fuel Pickup (In-Tank) ......................... Paxton, part # 8002122
Fuel Filter: .................................. Paxton, part # 8001689

Hi,
Sorry if I'm sticking my nose where it may be lopped off, but I have a question. If aero downforce is as dramatic as I am hearing, seeing the car at rest doesn't tell the whole story, as it would with, say, a Rolls Canardly. I suspect that the dynamic system, the car progressing around a...
I remember, back around 1989/90, reading a car magazine article, which demonstrated why the science hitherto known as metallurgy, was being renamed materials science. I suppose it's merely an evolutionary labelling process that began with the shaman, and worked it's way across alchemy.

Hello Colin,
I, for one, would be very interested in learning what you discover. If you are interested, I would be happy to share some data, as I've collected some suspension set-up information from various people who race, or track their M-series cars.
By the way, would you pass my thanks...
