This si a mechanical fuel pump running off the sea water pump. has a stock pulley on it and also the ignition is stock also thunderbolt 4 system want to upgrade to an MSD. Im running 5 psi of boost. thanks HYDRO. Any and all help much appriciated

if thats the stock pump you need to get the upgrade or a elec pump I also have a new black holley marine set up I never installed. I think I bought the upgrade kit from cp, but fred might have them to at trick. call me its 2pm, I called you at 12 my doc was late taking out the stitches. worst case we can strip mine off the water pump and try it. ART aka ARTIE or ARTIMUS
|
Art just talked to you sounds good about the pump we will slap that in and also the reg and blast from there it might be a little jimmy hacked until i get my normal BG reg back but hopefully rungs great and good to block with eveyone else

Imm doing the fuel system with art (airtime)today, I rebuilt the cars before i dropped it in the water for the sencond time to, they were dripping fuel so i just made them new again, there is not chiller on the intake, plugs look fine and i havent done a compression check yet, i dont see anythign out the exhaust, water dumps or on the plugs. I do see water/antifreeze in the bilge but the pressure testing didnt reveal anythign so looking more i do.
|
[QUOTE=when i was running it popped threw the intake on one cylinder then didnt, i got back to the dock smelled antifreeze, Lost all coolant, Filled it ran it again turned 5200 but still feels like its holding back. [/QUOTE]
Check timing also. Is the timing fixed or referenced? Could have backed off and that would cause the popping overheating all kinds of bad crap. |
Its a fixed timing
|
jb marine installed cheap valve springs after i paid for hp springs.
long story short the valve floated destroying the motor. if jb touched this motor look out. |
Coolant still blowing out seems to be external but not 100% sure
