Needless to say I got the DVD.

Here is a rendering. I am coloring some of the parts to enhance the
pictures :)

I'll take my computer to Sun N Fun and work on it there.

Hi Paul, so what do you think can we pull it off? It is going to be
a very tight squeeze but I think we can. My motor mounts are even a
little wider than a stock Long EZ by about 3 inches. Anyway, if I
can pull it off it should be one fast rocket. Thanks again for your
help and have fun in the sun!

No Problem Mike. It will fit.

Here is some old and some new ideas.

Paul Lamar



Hey Paul, did you send something? I never received it if you did.
Also, What fuel pressure does the injectors need to work? For some
reason I was thinking 90 psi but now I'm looking at fuel selector
valves and most are rated around 65 psi.

Thanks

Mike C

Not so far. 50 to 60 psi is normal.

I got a chance to take a look and the easiest thing is to make a new
1/2" plate with the starter on the bottom and the right rubber
bushing holder raised about six inches. The tubes will then clear the
turbo exhaust manifold.

If you can't do that I can do it for you as I have a table saw with
carbide blade.

Here is how I would do it Mike. No need for a new plate. Just tig
weld some material on here and there on the existing plate. The
inter-cooler is shown on top.

Does the axle of the turbo HAVE to be horizontal ?

Lutz Strobel


I would think so as that might over  load the thrust bearings.

However one direction might be better than the other.

Can you do a 3D of what you have in mind?
