Making the switch from D1SC to F1R
Making the switch from D1SC to F1R The D1SC was a good little blower but reach it's limit. So i found this F1R used on here for a fair price. Pulled the engine out to give it new set of rings and bearing and inspected the heads. Hoping to break into the 8s. Race weight will be a round 3800 lbs with driver.

I would be carefull with that inlet. I know a couple guys had issues with even hard rubber inlets sucking shut and some even hit the impeller. Nice change man! I loved your combo with the D1 and this will be so much nastier! Whats your target/hoped for boost and what are you doing for fuel?

What injectors? The rest of the fuel system is pretty stout though. I plan on making a hard piping inlet for my blower to avoid any issues with them sucking shut. I remember reading quite a few threads on that and some guys blowers were destroyed. This real similar to the combo I was going to run before I decided to change it up completely so I'm excited to see how yours does!

I work at a muffler shop so i can make it out of steel mandrel tubing. Again thanks for the info i don't want to destroy the blower.

I would use aluminum for the inlet as it clamps much better to the head unit than steel does. Bob

Thanks Bob
Nice! I'm going to run a cog setup with my new combo...no worries on slipping there lol. Theres also a blue "race belt" that I believe Gates has, it supposedly wears a little faster but also holds better until it does. I'm looking forward to seeing how she does man!

Key is good alignment, good tensioners and as many ribs as you can get on it....
10rib is a little bit more then a 8 rib. I was going to try and work with Chris (Aster) and set up a 10rib setup for his bracket. I decided it would be easier and smarter to make the move to a cog for when I up it to a bigger blower anyway. I agree that with a good belt and proper allignment, you can get quite a ways on a 8-10-12 rib setup. I wonder if anyone has run the blue "race" belt on here? It was a PITA trying to find a dealer with one.
