    Twins with Twins, Anyone?

    I upgraded all of the hose to 5/8 -- 10 AN as recommended by every power steering guy I've spoken to... The reservoir is above the pumps, but mounted 4 feet away on side of engine bay. So it should keep a little head pressure on em. Since there will typically be two pumps running, the load on...

    Tune and grid heater

    I doubt it will bitch about it missing enough to limp. Prob set a light at most. Can also likely put a resistor in the wiring and fake it if need be. Sent from a russian troll farm using Tapatalk

    Twins with Twins, Anyone?

    Accessory bracket cut, and after a little trim I think we are all good to go on front end assembly tomorrow. Ever notice how when your looking for a cheap piece of 1/4" polished aluminum none is ever arround? Not to worry some will always show up when you fully intend to powder coat the pieces...

    Now ow many more 90s will it require to tuck a -10 & -6 fitting and hoses in there behind the belt tensioner?? On a side note, the mechanical monsters heads are shaping up nicely. Sent from a russian troll farm using Tapatalk

    That's so funny. Just ordered 2 of his press in 10AN 90s before seeing that post. Be here Friday. All said and done, would probably been cheaper to order the TuffStuff pumps with both AN fittings installed.. Had I known what model pumps to order... [emoji23] Sent from a russian troll farm...

    Yeah it does. Wonder if they sell it separate from a pump however? Sent from a russian troll farm using Tapatalk

    Twins with Twins, Anyone?

    Last week was another one step forward two steps back on accomplishments. The PS pumps I purchased with remote reservoir tubes were about 1/4" thicker depth than my mock up pump. Which made the belt 1 rib off. While all Saginaw II pump bodies may look the same, they are not.... According to...

    Twins with Twins, Anyone?

    They were all special order... LOL That doesn't include the PS pumps I returned also. Looks like 87 Sunbird is the winner on the type 2 remote resivour pump design. They actually don't seem to mind all these returns. Advance and AZ are across the street from each other, so they know I'm...

    Twins with Twins, Anyone?

    After much much searching, finally found the right tensioner for the job. And it's GM.. 04-09 Cadillac CTS has a 2.5" swing radius with correct spring direction and pulley. Backset is close enough to line up by shimming the base or removing some meat behind the pulley. Both Advance and...

    Cold start tuning for big injectors without glow plugs

    Using a value of 100% over in the spreadsheet falls pretty close to my current running tune. Possibly those calculations can be tweaked a little bit based off comparison of the known values at 180MPa if graphed out. I'll add stock LBZ data to this once I get a bit more free time since these are...

    Cold start tuning for big injectors without glow plugs

    Those are two of the multipliers I mentioned above. Played with B1181 a bit to see how it moved things, but as far as I've made it yet. As for the throttle table, I found that the TPS is actually reading APP_D and not APP. APP_D reads 17% when throttle APP is reading zero. So it should never...

    Cold start tuning for big injectors without glow plugs

    That's been my approach so far. Crank it then add some throttle till she lights and check the PW / mm3 then adjust. Issue is, once she fires off and puts some heat in the cyl, next try it's easy start.. Maybe just make a note, cold stats add 50% throttle.... :thumb:

    Cold start tuning for big injectors without glow plugs

    Yeah would be nice to have a full spread of known values. I'll take a look at those calcs compared to what I have loaded in ECM now. I believe Mark has full map of the SS 100's and maybe a set of his 250's that Exergy flow benched for us to run on that M-Sport ECM. Know we sent Phil one of my...

    Cold start tuning for big injectors without glow plugs

    Here is one of the 200% or 270 PPH vs a 175% over nozzle at 1350us and couple lower MPa values. "Set Value" is what a stock LBZ should test at. You can see both of the larger nozzles look to flow less than stock at lower pressure. Id have to ask about that, but they are not linear in flow rate I...

    Stock lbz [TOP] vs the 100 over SS at 2600us that we ran on dyno. The PPH of that nozzle flowed 158 vs 90 stock. Sent from a russian troll farm using Tapatalk

    Cold start tuning for big injectors without glow plugs

    Well it's one step fwd, two steps back. Set most of the table values back to stock, adjusted PW values to better match the 200 over sticks. Which according to the flow bench data I have is roughly a 49% pulse reduction at 180 MPA. Cranks smooth, and produced little less smoke than the...

    Twins with Twins, Anyone?

    Then I looked at belt routing of my old Ford 6.0, and may have found the correct answer to both questions.. Seems Ford has no issue with placement or belt wrapping clean around the crank. And gonna say that tensioner is best fit I've found to date. Being it's off a equal size diesel, it should...

    Twins with Twins, Anyone?

    I agree best spot is directly after the crank to absorb majority of the slack. But the space is tight, and I was worried about how it would act with 80% of that crank pulley in contact. So here is how it would look if tensioner was sprung the other way.

    Yeah getting the PW mapped out and playing with torque values seems to be the key here. I'm gonna review all these recent changes compared to the base file and start fresh with what I've learned so far.
