    Regulated return for two tanks?

    Great input guys. Thanks! I like the six way selector (?) setup. Of course the return to the filter/separator would be way easier. It seems like it would confuse the flow? Trying to push back to the tank and draw from it at the same time? I'll look into Imco's system too. Thanks again

    Regulated return for two tanks?

    I'm running a 572 with a 1050. Baby blower. I want switch from a mechanical pump to an electric pump. With the increased flow I'm thinking that I need a return. My questions are: do I actually need one? If so, how do I plumb it for dual tanks? Thanks!

    Wts/wtt Hydromotive 30 for Hydromotive 27 or $750. Perfect!

    No. I don t want more boost. Still running pump gas. I d have to switch to duel carb setup with 106. I d like to stay with the same hp but use all the rpm. Currently at 7k redline. Like to stay around 6400

    Wts/wtt Hydromotive 30 for Hydromotive 27 or $750. Perfect!

    This prop is a bit too big. I'm running a 28 that gets me within 900 rpm of redline. I think the 27 will be perfect. Sell or trade. Trade should be perfect too. Will come in original box. 918-373-1668 or message. Thx!

    E85...Poor man's racing fuel?

    Nice Doc! What were the thoughts behind going that route? My engine guy said that there is a reason you only see alchohol (sp?) at the track...but it does sound like a bit of a tempting option. I'm curious about what it takes to convert on a carburated engine...

    E85...Poor man's racing fuel?

    My engine builder said he had done some research on it as well. Apparently there are several benifits but alot more negatives. He said it will burn more fuel, requiring rejetting with a conversion kit, you need higher fuil pressure, you need to change your oil more often due to...

    E85...Poor man's racing fuel?

    I went to an old timer race carb guy. He was awesome. Had stories and insight that can only come from 50+ years of doing it. Anyway, he said that I should start running e85. He runs it in his drag cars (yeah, 70 year old man still turnin time at the strip :cool:) and says it's equal to...

    Issues with 572 Merlin...Input would be awesome!

    Issues with 572 Merlin...Input would be awesome!

    Yes. Mechanical pump. I have it at 7psi at idle. Drops to about 6.5 at rpm. It is regulated. The boost reference is in the metering block. They are ar fittings so I will check them. The needles should be easy enough to check. I will look into that as well. You guys are giving me...

    Issues with 572 Merlin...Input would be awesome!

    That was the first fire on a water hose. In the water she loads up real bad. Black smoke leaving soot all over the transom...If idling for awhile, I have to rev her up a bit to blow it out. I appreciate your input :thumbsup
