I like the fuel level switch! Where do you get such things, or is that V-dub specific? I'd like to impliment that into my projects as well.

Great job on everything else, so far, too!

 

hi

the siwtch is and oil level switch from a CAT 320 excavator that fits in to the sump

cheers andy

 

bit more this weekend but not as much as i wanted to get done but tank is painted polyester sealed on the water side and epoxy sealed on the fuel side




going to finish the wiring in the week and then fingers crossed first try run


cheers andy

 

lookin forward to seeing more progress

 

bit of an update

Had a good few days on the car, made a thing i call it a black tank with a pump on the end. As i dont have a swirl pot i need to make sure i have fuel presure all the time as i dont want any melted heads or pistons lol basically the fuel system has two returns one from the low low presure and one from the high.



The low presure pump under the tank (front) supplys the fuel to the tank (back) and returns whats not used keeping a constant presure of 1 bar to the high presure pump that supplies the engine fuel rail and then returns to the tank down the third line so fingers crossed it should never let me have low fuel presure fingers crossed and gives the fuel time to cool a bit more than just taking straight from the tank

bit better under here now







everthing tight and wired up in here



kafer bar fitted an coil overs fitted and adjusted





thanks for looking cheers andy

 

deck lid is on taken me ages to find some thing i was happy with















been busy today making a rear seat fit around the cage and testing the dry sump system i have a slight lek from the pump so ive got to take that off tmw to sort that but the interior is done so a few more electrics to sort, oil pump and MOT and im done apart from tuning but thats another job all together lol

 

now ive got the NOS controller working more wires lol





as ive lost the sleeper look ive now gone for the race car look



and some vintage style number plates




a few liitle additions i nice little turbo blanket to keep things cool ran the engine for about 5 mins and I could hold my hand on the turbo and no breather issues now wooo hoooo



and at last got hold of a dry sump pully and it fits :clap: just lol



so far thats it so nearly there now

cheers andy
