This came up on a local forum, so with the number of ford savvy blokes on jyturbo, I thought I'd repost the query here, for any advice. I'll put it up as it...
Go with the C4. With that much weight, you won't like the glide on the street. Just my own personal experience, but glides work pretty well for the street in...
Yep, it's kind of slick, just hook up a switch to the controller to tell it that it's in paddle shift mode and then rig an upshift and downshift button and...
A restrictor would work, but you're probably talking about something in the .060" range to knock down the pressure significantly. If it's not smoking then I...

I agree with Mike on going with the C4 for a "reasonable" street/strip car. Lots of current NMRA drag racers are running C4s reliably in 9 and 10 sec cars....
... It's got somewhat of a cult following downunder too! the only concern I have is it being a little less streetable (because generally speaking the 'go' with...
Does anyone have any good ideas on how I can evacuate the gas tank of all fumes and such so that I can fix a seam leak and weld a sump to the bottom?...
C4's are very small and weigh hardly anything, plus they don't take as much power to turn as a TH350. That's probably why the lightweight rotary guys use...

Drain the tank completely. Mop out any/all liquid fuel with absorbent (oilsorb pads for shop oil spills work REAL well) Leave the tank with the sender opening...
#1 choice is to buy a fuel cell with a sender unit. #2 choice is after you drain and let it air dry in the sun for several days, fill it full of water up to...

Filling the tank with "exhaust gas" is also the internationally mandated method of preventing vapor explosions in the tanks of ships particularly oil tankers. ...
the problem is that "steam" or the cooler form "water gas" is lighter than air and tends to float up and out of the tank. CO2 is about 1.5 times as heavy than...

Has anyone experimented with the 13B turbo? I'm contemplating two 13B Rotary turbos on a 5L V8. The cold side looks slightly larger than a T-Bird T3/60 but the...
