I bought this kit years ago as I added a 10-71 Roots blower to my engine and it works great. I highly recommend it. When I documented my blower conversion in a thread up here in this section years...

Exactly! I run a 10-71 blower with a modified Wenzler Gutsram and a crank trigger and the distributor (unchopped) fits under the blower. With a shorter intake, the distributor could be cut down to...

For now, a least, it looks as if Tucson Dragway will soon be the only track in the state. It's a nicely laid out physical facility with a long shutdown area. But, there are two problems: (1) it was...

Can't believe I never posted a pic of my engine on this thread. Here it is from 2014, right after I ran my first seven. My home remodel will be done soon and I plan to get back to my car. No,...

Beautiful car. I like the colors--reminds me of a friend's GTO years ago.

When I start back on it, that's how I'll do it--eating the elephant one bite at a time. That's how I'm doing the house remodel--doing almost everything myself and learning as I go along. I hope to...

Sadly, I haven't run since I blew up my head gaskets over three years ago. The damage is fixed, but the car is still apart. Covid (my wife and I are both old and she was immune-compromised at the...

Good choice, George. You need both port and hat injectors for tuning and the Ron's systems are made here in Tucson.

I ran a Ron's system when I was running NA and was very happy with it (still...

Once I got the hat nozzles set, I never have changed them--they're a little hard to get to. The port nozzles take a little doing to balance the cylinders and keep consistent EGT's on all cylinders....

George,
It's so much easier and more accurate with mechanical injection that has hat and port injectors. I can tune my engine for any track and any weather with a few jet changes. I know you've made...

The pattern will depend on your blower outlet and the pattern will almost certainly be different from your old blower. That's where individual cylinder EGT's are so helpful.

I had the same problem with the RCI harness, but finally got it all sorted out.



Good luck this weekend. It's too hot here now to even think of moving. Getting old, I guess.:(
