Title: SOLD!Mechanical Fuel Injection
Post by: Mike Lawless on November 30, 2012, 05:54:57 am
Complete and ready to run and in excellent condition. Set-up to run on methanol. You can run less expensive methanol ($4-5/Gal) fuel, and run cooler, and make increased low end torque too. It is affected less with weather changes than gasoline and has a wide tuning window. The fact is, I haven't made a jet change in two years. Be able to “hot lap” your racer with virtually no between rounds cool-down. Head temps after a run are typically around 150° and the hottest I've measured is 240° after making three back to back passes fifteen minutes apart. Once it’s started for the first time on race day (Some light priming will get it going easily), it starts as easy as any carbureted motor would with no additional priming needed.

System is complete and as pictured below, ready to bolt on, and calibrated to 270 flywheel hp. It has the capacity and jet assortment to work on anything from 230 hp to 300hp. More if additional bypass jets are used to tune for higher fuel flow to the nozzles. Tuning is accomplished by changing a single bypass jet. A smaller jet increases pressure and flow thru the nozzles, (more fuel, richer) a larger jet lowers pressure and flow thru the nozzles (less fuel, leaner).

All you need is a fuel cell or the included Kinsler Vapor Separator canister (or surge tank as some call it) with a #10 feed port mounted fairly close to the pump. Mounted above the transaxle, the MFI pump can draw its fuel from this canister. The canister would be fed by the normal front mounted fuel cell by an electric fuel pump, returning excess fuel back to the main fuel cell via a return fuel line. Makes installation in a full bodied car easier.  

Features:

• Hilborn PG150 S0 pump (4GPM, 100 psi @ 4000 pump rpm). This pump will supply more than enough fuel for any VW engine.
• Hilborn belt drive kit (mounts to stock fuel pump mounting pad on case) with spare belts
• KRE 52mm throttle bodies (IDA pattern) with custom “one-off” stacks on Comp E/Superflow manifolds with enderle style nozzles. (You can mount these throttle bodies on a different IDA pattern manifold. Injector ports would need to be installed. See photo for placement)
• Barrel Valve with idle (secondary) bypass for cleaner idle
• Nozzle lines
• Fuel shut-off valve with morse cable that attaches to main roll bar hoop.
• Complete centerpull linkage
• All nozzles, bypasses, including main bypass, secondary (idle) bypass, high speed bypass and jet assortment and a spare set of nozzles included.
• All associated plumbing, mounts and bracketry.

System was calibrated by Spud Miller of Fuel Injection Enterprises. It runs at 100psi for good atomization from the nozzles. All the spec sheets and tune-up information is included.
$1400 complete. Buyer pays shipping. Compare to what a good set of IDAS cost
