i never got round to doing it on the road, we came to the idea that it wasnt going to work so we are just going after market now with 160lb injectors

 

mine is a Beck. he'll make you anything you want for any heads you want.



this one is for LS7 style heads. Long story, but I actually had him make me two for this car, but I already sold the other one. i used an 8 injector setup, but he said he could have set it up for 16 easy.

My intake is just a GMPP intake (nothing fancy) with extra bungs welded in for the 16 injectors.

PWRTRIP - There are two ideas (maybe more?) behind running the 16 injectors.
1 - You need more injector (16 - 100+ injectors for instance ) and you don't or can't run the big boy injectors which are cost prohibitive.

2 - You run them in staged injection using BS3 (this is what I'm doing). So the primary injectors can be relatively small (lets say something like a 36) to allow you to have good resolution for idle and cruise, plus you don't need a lot of power to keep your car rolling on the highway. Then the second set comes in (both sets running) at a certain trigger point which provides enough fuel while under boost, etc.

With option 2 you can run a totaly seperate fuel system for each set of injectors. So you can have regular pump gas in your stock tank for startup, idle, and cruise. Then race gas in a small fuel cell for WOT, etc. That way you can run around on kill all the time, if so desired, without burning race gas sitting at a stop light. Kurt did this for the Power Tour and used something like one small tank of race gas for the entire tour. You just have to remember that you aren't running straight race gas once the second set of injectors comes in, you are running a mix of race gas/regular gas. Kurt was talking about running 87 octane at one point, but I'm not sure if he tried it out.

My car is going with the route above using a small fuel cell in the spare tire area (like Jim's car had).

 

Classic, can you not totally remove the smaller set of injectors once in boost?? i thought thats what Kurt was doing?? also i thought nelosn did this with their engines.

From what I understand BS3 activates both sets (although I could certainly be wrong). W2W had this useful calculation on their website for calculating the combined octane:

EO = ((SFR/(SFR+PFR))*HO)+((PFR/(SFR+PFR))*PO) where
EO - effective octane
SFR - secondary fuel injector flow rate
PFR - primary fuel injector flow rate
HO - secondary octane
PO - primary octane

The greater the spread in your injector flow rates, the higher your effective octane will be (assuming you are using the same primary and secondary fuels).

 

Here are a couple threads with some good discussion on it:

And a good summary post by Kurt:

The box is sequential, when it makes the second set come on it re-caculates the pulse width for the two injectors and fires them together in the original sequential order.
Most people that use this option are running methanol with 16 injectors on common fuel system. The only cars using the dual fuel that I know of are Jim and our Nova. I ran the Hot Rod Drag Week on 10 gallons of race gas for 1600miles, although 2 of the 5 tracks rained out.

Here is one, it is a Super Victor

 

Thats very nice.....

 

I'm going to do a super victor.

 

I plan on doing something like this very soon, but with the stock PCM and 12 injectors. I found a company that makes a setup that will run 4 extra high impedance injectors. The new Ford 80lb high impedance injectors are 97.3897 lb / hour injectors at 58.02 PSI. From my calculations at 80% duty cycle and a .65 BSFC it should supply enough fuel for 1428.37 flywheel horsepower.

I want to set up a fuel cell like Stenod just did on Toonz's car except make it into two fuel cells. What I'm currently trying to figure out is how large to make each fuel cell. From my thought now which is completely random I'm thinking one 12 gallon tank with 93 and one 4 gallon tank with Q16 or the methanol my brother and I are working on, but I'm not sure.

I've also been trying to figure out what fuel pumps to put in each cell. At the moment I'm thinking dual walbro 340s in the large tank and a single in the race gas setup. I'm trying to decide on those versus running a denso supra pump. The densos flow a little more, but have a much larger draw. Thoughts?

I'm guessing that equation is for two equal aka 2 sets of 8 injectors. With running 8 and 4 for a total of 12 injectors how would that equation be modified? I was messing with it, but the way I was changing it I knew the results were wrong.

Those two threads have hints of what I was planning on doing exactly. I'm glad you posted a link to them. I'm going to use stainless 1/2 inch tubing for a feed and return on both cells. The controller for the extra 4 injectors is from splitsec like Hunter02ss posted. I think it should be pretty cool. I have it costing around $1450 for the pumps, injectors, lines, fittings, and PCM setup. I still need to price a spacer for 4 extra injectors, the rails for that, fuel filters, fuel cell, and the regulators. I'm guessing it's going to be around $2600-2750 for the whole setup. It's expensive, but still a lot cheaper than running a staged BS3 system for $3000 and then having to buy both fuel systems.

 

Cool Andy, what hood are you going to run with it?

 

No good on the super victor, they don't make one for the LS7. I'm going to get one made. I want to keep my stock hood, if I can't get it to fit I'll get a hood like Mikes.
