RATT
RSR
May 7, 2004
Well,
the RATT didn't make Rennsport because what did they say about
Di Vinci painting the 123rd chapel in how many days? Here
are pictures of the engine loaded in the truck, heading for
Jarvis Tech in Fort Lauderdale.
Dave Jarvis
installed electromotive ignition and injection in the 3.4
liter engine and did all the mapping and tuning (dyno). We
have now got it back and after power pulls of almost of 380
hp and a whole lot of torque, we will install and get ready
for our 1st test on May 14th.
The deck
lid has been re-fit to make sure it clears the fan and alternator.
This is why I never paint the deck lid until after the final
fit.
Because
of the electronic injection, we need high pressure fuel pumps
and they have now been installed in place of the low pressure
Bendix pumps.
Here is
a picture of the pump and the filter. Martin and Andy are
finishing the wiring.
The tape
is to protect the roll bar during the seat assembly.
Andy is hooking the battery to the safety switch. Monday,
we will give you a sound bite from the engine's start up.
