Streetable Mechanical Injection on a Blower
Posted: Thu Jul 24, 2003 1:26 pm
Hello Everyone-
This is my first time on the board, so let me tell a little about myself. I'm 24 and currently building a ProStreet 62 Nova. Right now it's back halfed with an Alston 4-link and a narrowed Ford 9", detroit locker, 3.89's, and some custom 31 spine axels. It's got an Alston 12 point cage and aluminum tinwork in the back. The front has a MII crossmember with tubular arms (upper and lower), coilovers, 2" dropped spindles. I have most of the motor so here's what I got: 454 bored .060 over, 4340 Eagle crank (stock stroke), Scat H-beam rods (stock length), Speed pro blower pistons, Speed Pro rings, Clevit bearings, Pro Thunder Aluminum Heads (320cc In, 119cc chambs), 6/71 blower with older style Hilborn injection, no cam yet because I've spent too much money so far and need to catch up. For a tranny I have a Ricmond 5spd, lake wood bellhouseing, centerforce clutch, and howe hyd throwout bearing.
My intentions is to have a nice street car that really performs on the track. I've asked around on how to get the injection to work "well" on the street, and have come up with nothing. I know it's some what possible because I've seen it done, and just couldn't get a chance to ask the guy driving. You guys got any ideas. Sorry for long post, just wanted to give a little background. If I find the photo album, I'll post some pics too. Thanks in advance!
