Pictures coming up

Hopfully in a little while Ajax will be posting some new pictures for us.

You will see a intake experement that increases volocity of the charge. We are trying this because we can't make the intake longer and we want to increase low end torque. It's not practical as a production part due to fabrication costs.

Then there will be the mold for the carbon fiber inlet duct. This goes from the S/C inlet to the TB.

Now this is a product that will solve all the fueling problems forever.

It is a manifold to hold up to a 55 DCO Weber. It outlets in a 80mm ID 3.5" hose.
No other adapter has been made to hold more then a 45mm carb.
Also no one else makes it into a tube so as to be universal.
This is our own casting and is not offered anywhere else. I know I'll get yelled at for this but you make all the castings you want for your own tricks.

Let me check and see if Gomez is paying attention, he can do it.


Gomez said OK, they're in his hands.

Ok sorry for the ingnorance in this question, I am pretty sure I have followed most of this thread until now. You are adding a carb to this for the extra fuel needs. Is this correct? And if so, where is the carb going to be located? I remember talk about adding another injector pre-AFS before.

No he isn't adding a carb for this project. The carb is HIS project that he'd like to see work on a Renesis.

I'll go out on a limb and put forward this theory.....the Weber adapter is another of Richards projects and is unrelated to the AFSC project.

I could be wrong though, he is a crazy mixed up stuck-in-the-sixties Yank!!!

Nice work Richard! If you just wanted a Webber adaptor for a 13B, you could have always just asked

Cheers,

Gomez gets the prize, it was for the Latham Supercharger.
The one photo that is not identified is a section of the new inlet volute.
It shows the shape of the airflow. It's kinda hard to see it without the right shadows so just keep looking until you see it.

Hymee, is there a 13b adapter with 55mm capacity?

That's it. I first didn't want to bother explaining it so I said forget it. Then you posted it so I explained it. Then noticed you removed it after reading my note.

Still damn good comunication for two guys on other sides of the world.
Think how long this would take if we had to use regular mail.
Most of you guys can't fathom that can you?

What is this "regular" mail that you speak of knuckle dragger? Does the post office even still exist?

A fathom is 6 feet.
Yes the post office still exists just to deliver our shifters. Other then that they would close.

If you look at the cut for the seal holder you get an idea of the shape and direction of flow.
The inlet is not cut yet but comes in at the left in the fat part of the part. It will be cut at 50 degrees from axial.
