This is my plot, pretty much back to back, with plenum plotted in the thicker lines.

sp_cs...thanks for the link to the plenum/stack dyno plot...very interesting.

Thank you! As Al says, very interesting indeed. I'll have to go through your whole thread.

Did you drive both set-ups or just dyno? If you did drive them both, any thoughts on character of each?

Ahem..... not to belabor the subject of the thread but... not that I am inpatient however we might need a Mrs Jeff intervention.

rick, i would look forward to that!!!

Unfortunately not - it was setup with common plenum on the lower comp pistons, then changed to stacks on high comp pistons and twins plug.

I can say the second phase which also added the Eisenmann made a marked difference above 4k, it hits the limiter with ease.

Below 4k it doesn’t feel that much different at all to the plenum and lower comp piston setup. The plenum gave it a GT3 style howl, however there is more of a roar with the stacks and ITG filters.

Thanks Shirish, good to know.

leak-down......
 

This engine turned out right......after tuning on the test stand, I did a leak-down test.....and I've only seen results this good once before, so these are better than could be hoped for. (keep in mind that the accuracy of the test equipment is +/- 2%....but still great results)

Also, for the last 2 years or so, I've been using the engine sealing kit sold by Henry at SuperTech (available through Pelican) and I have to say that I recommend the kit and method highly.

Now, i'm installing the Rasant wiring harness and once the tranny has some work done, it will all be installed back into the Carrera.........getting a little closer.

Too funny. Since I am on my 3rd, you may be onto something. Al, looks look like credit and reimbursement of attorneys fees is waaaay over due.

rick....I give you all the credit in the world.....for amassing the attorney's fees....

it is in there!
 

Pivotal moment....the 3.5 has landed...I'm doing the electrical and fuel plumbing....I expect to fire this up before the week is out...and maybe it will move under its own power for the first time in awhile......http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1560922793.JPG

fire!!!!
 

It is alive......

Al
Forgive me if this has already been covered but is there a reason it's using PMO ITB's and Rasant and not your ITB's and MS?
I am about to start on a 2.8 ITB COP possibly MS3x and have been to your website frequently and am planning to contact you as soon for some much needed advice, direction, moral support...
Thanks
Tony Moore

it's all good
 

tony,
Greetings and thanks for the interest.

I can provide Megasquirt, AEM, Electromotive, Motec controllers, etc.
I can provide RHD, PMO, Jenvey, TWM/Borla or ATPower ITBs
I can provide custom-made or off the shelf wiring harnesses, etc.....

and it is all very good stuff...........

My intention is to make available a range of systems and technical support that provide the Features/Price/Performance required or desired by the end user.

I'll be glad to work with you to meet your project goals too!

regards,
al

Looking forward to seeing this one come to life! Great work!

Al
Thanks for the response and that sounds awesome. I'll be in touch hopefully soon.
Tony

Hey Al
