Wheatley's 6262 build
#529
Sorta. I have the plot of 708/614 or so pull but not the 720/619. It's pretty similar though. The peaks and graph were similar. On the 720 pull we were able to get the power to almost carry flat out to 8k. This is the post I made that contains some info. https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/sh...d.php?t=623223
This was on a mustang dyno and in 4th. It was the only way to keep it from spinning. I don't know how actual those numbers are due to the dyno,gear and how hot it was that day but it should give some decent insight on the powerband.

Ben sent me some pics last night. Almost all bars are bent and ready for welding. Ill be going down Friday for seat fitment and to check things out. Looks like I'll be able to retain visors which for me is a plus. As of yesterday no word on the tank progress. I also finished ordering my safety gear last night, nothing fancy. I just consider it mid grade stuff until I decide what I like. Also ordered everything to fab up a 4" aluminum exhaust finally, its surprising how affordable most of this is. Ill have half the money in my exhaust as I could buy it for.

Most of the main bars are bent and tacked. I'm going down Friday to be fitted, after that things should progress quickly.
Windshield bar and forward bars fitted. Looks like the visors can be retained which was important to me.
Fathouse starting the final welds on the front bars that are dropped down.
I think the guys are doing great so far.
I also ordered the rest of my safety equipment along with a lithium battery and all the aluminum to make my own 4" aluminum exhaust. I'm really hoping to make it to the race at Norwalk in May.

BTW your car is coming along nice and I'm curious to see if all finished with the cage in. BTW good decision on the 6466. After going from the 6262 to the 6466 I can tell it's going to be brutal. I'm not fully tuned yet (little hurdles) but am very anxious to say the least.

Very cool! I never knew they made a reusable filter for the 4g63/4 engines. My next purchase!

Thanks and the 62 has done great by me but its just not able to push enough air anymore. I want to get a real fuel pump in the car next and then its onto a cdi box from craig. I just don't know which one I need yet. I doubt I ever go to a 67 due to the rpm needed to make power, the 2.4 will never swing that high and I don't want to think far enough ahead that I need an aluminum rod 2.0 yet
I checked the cage out last night, and gave some rough estimates for the seat mounts. The cage is awesome in my opinion. Its tucked tight, really tight actually. For being their first evo cage and only number 2 overall they are doing some really nice work. This all with a manual bender and leaving the oem heater box, dash wiring, bar etc etc in place. I really can't say enough about how much I like the way its coming out. Most the ones I've seen the forward bars I'd smack my head on every time getting in or the front bar blocks the line of sight etc. This really is being done exactly as I was wanting it. Its really going to be pushing it to be race ready for May, I'm not sure yet if the fuel system will be done or not at this time. I'm not going to rush cutting the dash or getting it in color so we'll see.
This is from last night, they didn't do the harness bar until they finished the seat brackets.

I have been using the Pro 12 cdi box from M&W for almost 6 year now. I know that for your car you might want to consider something that outputs at the 150MJ or more. The 300m coils IMO are not the greatest.( My car doesn't make as much power as yours) however I have to drop the gap down to 19 when running ethanol and low 40s of boost, even with the PRO -12 box
the pencil coils could also be another option with a different CDI box.
In regards to the pump, just buy a Weldon and be done with it.. Or for simplicity grab one of marcos Couplers to a mechanical pump

In regards to the Weldon's, they have some really nice pumps but I think those might be getting out of my price range. . I think I'll be fine with anything around 440 lph. That's an estimate that I haven't finished figuring yet based on what I'm seeing other cars consume. The mech pumps are baller to say the least. I just don't think I'll ever be at the power level to need one.
I don't want to run two pumps, if I did I'd just run a 400 and a 255. It'd be enough pump for 850 on ethanol all day I just don't trust two pumps anymore.

I don't know I've you've ever tried to watch a gauge or a warning light at 150 or anything that is blowing tires off at 60+ mph but by the time you realize it to lift you've melted a piston. The only way I'd run twins is if it were setup in my aem to cut boost. I just don't trust a 7k engine to an $80 fuel pump. I know tons of people have success with them but the simpler the system the better. Since the tank will be sumped now I might as well cut it down to one big pump if I can. For pure volume twin 400 will provide a lot of flow at the pressures you'll need at the voltage you'll have.
What I like about the magna is no need for a controller for street use. I could always go bigger than the 4303 and have enough fuel. I've seen several guys post 900hp on ethanol but at 80 psi at 13.8v I think it was 114 gph
I know a 400 and a 255 are about 487 lph but I don't know how much flow is lost when running as a double pumper or how much extra fuel was on the table for the 6466 cars. I think 114gph is 431lph but I'd have to double check.
