Howdy all. With a little time on the hands since Bonneville got cancelled, figured I could post some shots of what we've been working on. This year, the plan was to take two engine (12V and CR). 12V for veg only and CR for petro and bio-diesel only.
The "passenger side" of the turbo system remains the same between the engines, but due to head and pump differences, the stage 2 intercooler has to change. This led to some serious piping fun on the driver side.
The cooler was finished by the time we started working on tubes, but the we got these all tacked together and ready for welding in one day (three of us working on it), then welded it up the next. Didn't have a chance to take many pics of it welded up yet, but will get some of those if y'all are interested.
There are a few tight spots with this setup, and we lucked out with having an extra clamp to make the section around the adjustable pump gear removable. Otherwise adjust the timing would be a HUGE pain. Still working out some kinks in the engine, should have it dynoing soon though.
Enjoy and let me know what you think!
