Looking good mate, its the finishing touches that makes it all the better.
No corners cut and nothing overlooked........impressive.

Fingers crossed for this weekend.

Don't know anywhere that does beading as a service, most places don't go small enough - Pace sell a beading roller for £300 But they might bead via the post.

Alternately, as your boost pipes look ally, I've seen sets of molegrips with weld-ons to make "crimpers", run it round the pipe a few times and bingo...

Yermother, with the JBS Equal Length has had problems with the oil feed line on the LCR cracking - it's part solid pipe and he thinks it cracks with the extra expansion that the tubular manifold brings. You might have a full braided feed, I don't know, just thought I'd mention it.

 

[h17och]

thanks for that. worth a thought about the oil return!!

im just goin back to rs fab to do the beading now, bit of a mission but hey at least it will be done!!

Just a thought about the beading. Have you tried Chris @ CHF??? Also try my mate Howard - 01234 772579. Just round the corner from me. He is an amazing ali welder and does custom pipework.

[h17och]

Just wondered how 550cc injectors can suply enough fuel for a 3071? You can max out 560's (90% duty) at around 310atw approx 400fly with a fpr. Surely you need at least 750's for 450bhp and 1000's for 510 bhp?

I'll be using 630's on my 3071 and I have an adjustable FPR which may help. USRT recommended 550's to me @ 4 bar, but i wanted more headroom.

 

[h17och]

im also on 630's...

750cc on mine were easily 500bhp level.
620cc max'd beyond 485bhp for me

both at 4bar

 

[h17och]

can anyone confirm its ok to put the n75 outlet onto my catchtank instead of the tip?

 

[TTS Roadsport]

Yer, or vent it to air. Or do away with the N75!!!

 

[ibizacupra]

so long as its free venting it will work yes
