Porks bike carbs and boost project

[h701micra]

I run my fuel lines inside on most cars I've built. No issues at all

 

[h701micra]

Looks tidy Neil
Keeps that engine bay freed up

Better than spaghetti junction inthe engine bay :/

 

[pork]

Cheers, as long as it's safe

Never had an issue personally though I double clipped my high pressure hoses to be extra safe stainless doesn't compress well so 8mm to a 6mm pipe is a no go

Others were aeroquip gear... but I can't afford that this time round

 

[h701micra]

Double post :/

 

[l_jonez]

I think its personal preference.
personally I'd keep everything out side of the car. I had fuel fire a while back ( over flowing carb and a back fire) and the speed at which it engulfed the engine bay was scary and that was low flow/pressure.

Maybe build a enclosure, so that if the worst ever happened it would be contained to a small area.?

 

[frank]

most rally cars iirc (and my stockcars) had to fit the pipes on the inside (scrutineer insistence) but it would,nt pass type approval for road cars i guess ?

 

[l_jonez]

From the old msa blue book, ok your not taking part in motorsport but its a good guide to build a safe car...

Passenger Compartment

• Must have a bulkhead between fuel tank/filler and passenger compartment, this must prevent the passage of flame or liquid. If the fuel tank forms the bulkhead, an additional bulkhead is required, the fuel tank may require additional protection. (i.e. if the fuel tank is in the boot, it must be separated from the passengers. If it is under the floor, it must be protected from damage.)
• Interior fuel lines must be braided
• If the fuel filler is in an enclosed location (e.g. in boot) it must have external drainage.

I'm sure it also says that compression fittings should be used rather than jubilee clips and any internal lines should be one piece with no joins.

Thanks

The hose iv got is braided, and there's only 1 foot off high pressure flexible braided hose before it's plumbed into the original k10 solid pipes

It'll be fine
You conform to all those msa rules

 

[pork]

Got coil plug things and cam sensor plate

Thanks frank

Also some more boost pipe bits, 63-40 reducer T for inlet on turbo that will be fed from mini bypass valve

More parts arriving tomorow to finish of fueling.
Then it's jus ecu.

 

[AH.K10]

That bay is looking tidy! You going to RR it when you are done?

Cheers,
When and where's that at?

[pork]

Ahh, lol misread, thought you were on about retro rides gathering

Yeah, definitely!
gunna have to I guess, mapping and stuff

 

[frank]

this is the little stump for the 720deg sequential signal neil 11mm standoff so m6 capscrew and loctite maybe ?
and some greased rag or a magnet to catch the swarf eh

 

[pork]

Brilliant, cheers mate!

You can turn the bag inside out when you're done, then you have a clean magnet and all your swarf in a bag

 

[frank]

Brilliant, cheers mate!

np i have some of these 60 minus 2 sensor rings too, but its probably easier to fit an aftermarket pulley one tho eh

 

[pork]

I've got 36-1 wheel and crank sensor all sorted now

 

[pork]

Another little bit sorted..... Pipes for bypass return.....

 

[l_jonez]

Looking good



Oooohh by the way hurry up mine is already running

 

[pork]

Soon!
I've gone for the cheap /ready built optiom. Redline rcu (ms2 copy)

Should be here next week

 

[pork]

Would of preferred the megasquirt, but the ready built was to expensive, and don't have time/skill/patience to build my own

 

[MicrAde]

Looking bloody good Neil

Eerrm, silly question, but what type are my injectors? Need the plugs for them.....so are they ev1.....6.....14? Lol

the are various slightly different connectors/plugs neil, you have to get the manufacturers plug (audi/nissan/seat or whatever) even tho the injectors are made by bosch

 

[pork]

Dam, so the plugs on eBay gunna be no good

 

[frank]

here are the k11 topfeed and sidefeed types mate, i had to file 1 of the pips off and turn the connector 180 deg, audi ones are different again

 

[pork]

Cheers mate

Back to the scrappy I go tgen

 

[Belly93]

I cant find these atm will have a look with tge rest of my stuff st my mams bf house

 

[Noddie]

looking good neil!!

 

[pork]

Oooooo ecu

 

[mas12555]

All looking good mate!

Doesn't look technical at all...

 

[pork]

Haha! Not one bit!

 

[h701micra]

Haha! Not one bit!

Definitely pre built for future reference

What did it end up costing etc?

 

[pork]

That is pre built, didn't fancy making all that myself

£349 delivered, not too bad considering that's what the megasquirt woulda cost unassembled.

Jus waiting on plugs then I can start the wiring up

 

[l_jonez]

Not bad at all, does it come with its own software or does it use a generic program.

 

[pork]

It does, had a quick look, looks a bit scary tbh, but it's something to play about with lol

 

[pork]

Jus so I've got this right.....(car electrics confusing me)

The live wire is linked between all injectors, and it's the ecu that switches the grounds?

No wiring diagram, jus waiting for replies from supplier

 

[frank]

yes the live,s are linked about half way down the loom on prefacelift k11,s neil, and 4 separate earth signals

 

[pork]

I take it same for the coil plugs too.

Another question on those, what's the 3rd wire in the coils foe

Feed, signal and earth ?

 

[pork]

Cheers mate

I'm probably coming across as a bit off a simpleton,, But I gotta ask

 

[frank]

Cheers mate

i,m only guessing mate there is a coilpack diag on the pdf download eh

 

[pork]

Makes sense lol

Yeah , jus browsing now

 

[l_jonez]

With the megasquirt they separate the injectors into 2 pairs (banks) 1&3 and 2&4 with their own 5 amp supplies. I think the idea being that if for some reason a fuse blows it will only affect half the cylinders.

The engine should run on 2 cylinders, mine could run 1 cylinder.

 

[pork]

So here's my plan, the ecu has individual coil drivers, but will be running paired up, same as the injectors..... For now,

Feel free to pick holes

 

[frank]

is that the ecu,s the firing order neil ?
