TF_250

Went back out testing again last night, first time in 2 months
We haven't changed anything overall, had a missfire in the 1st pass so we changed the plugs and it was a jet after that had 4 good runs in a row pb after pb so all in all happy now. Weather was good but no were near cold enough.
Also did a perfect 000 light on the last pass 1st time ever in probably over 1000 passes!!
 

 

 
 

Well said Webby.

The carby just bolts on the engine just build the thing and try both the engine will tell you the one it likes

We run a 465 on beacons car with a camtech 237@50 cam we know the carbys to small cause it gets to 5500 and falls on it arse it would go harder with a 600 but its what he has and it is a streeter and spends most of its time under 2500rpm so it better for him

While where talking about it I run a 600 on a next to stock 250 engine and that thing is good on fuel and if you did not look you would think it has a stock webber till you put your foot into it the noise tells you theres a big hole over the manifold

Just build it, even a shit slap job 250 with a crap head and 230@50 cam will do 200rwhp im unsure what you want from it but 200hp crossy with push a big falcon well, a boost stock one much better just sticking that in there HAHA

You still running for forged pistons? or that ideas gone now?

Very complicated traction control, not needed or practical on a car running said 60' times, Bolt on a set on mt radials and you won't break traction at all.  
As for the op engine I'd go for a 600 vac carb will do the job fine, imo the 465 is a little small for this engine combo. I've tried both carbs and the 600 was better then the 465 both cruising and at wot. Just my opinion though.

6 injectors and a throttle body?

Went Out On Wednesday night for a few test runs. The weather is finally coming good and the performance fo the car is now showing. The best the crossflow did was 11.582 @ 114.44 at -414 ft altitude in the dead of winter, raced the other night at 550ft and netted the times below. There is more in this yet still getting our heads around the new motec tuning style. I also get the car back down to the same weight as when the crossflow was in it so i can have a real compare of the performance of the 2 engines.

Went into the vault for you, 2.03 60's for both carbs mate!! the 500 was a good carb but the 600 vac had way more top end, 3mph is a lot with a carb change. 215/60 nankings 1280kg car
 
 
Jezz 2.03 60'!!! now I do 1.66 and I'm not happy!!!!

Or make the 3mm version then use it as a mold for a fiberglass version, Just what a drag car needs more weight, its already over weight now!!!!

I was under the impression that they are the same from E series right till BA??
 
FG top BA Bottom
 

 
BA in car
 

 
FG in car
 

 
the orientation is the same the FG is just shorter in length by about 30mm from memory.

The ba and fg are the same orientation so the solenoid is in the same spot, yes the flange has a large tab on it but could be ground off.

yeah the wood the go just drilling holes in it to make it lighter!!!
 
I have had a couple of issues that came up and was avoiding pulling the motor but once i did it they had to be fixed. Had a little sump clearance issue so the corner of the sump had to cut off and re-welded. Also I'm plumbing in a oil/water heater to try and get some oil temp which I really struggle with, and have had a leak in the gearbox front area which as been driving me nuts so i have pulled the trans today and think i have found the problem hopefully. All going well should be back together soon and testing before Christmas.

Xflow - 345hp @ 6100 333ftlb @ 4700
FG -    355hp @ 6050 342ftlb @ 4500
 
same dyno, same fuel brand, same manifold, same exhaust, same tuner, 3 years apart!!
 
So thats a stock FG DOHC head port, chamber, valve angles etc which is different to BA DOHC also we love vct saw one simple change at 5000 to the exhaust cam and gained 20hp!!! the cams have 60 degrees of movement and we are using all of that through the rev range.
 
Should be back out racing in the next few weeks if all goes well.

Eeeek
