Title: One Really hot red.
Post by: Addo on August 15, 2006, 10:40:14 AM
I've got a 202 that came out of a methonol burning track car. It was running triple, dual throat mechanical injection. Has a cam that would kill, roller rockers, high volume sump with a pick up hosed from the lowpoint running through a filter mounted to the skirt of the car. It only did a half dozen laps since it was built and I was going to wind it down a little and put it in the FC but when I did a compression test cold and on the bench it read 250 psi per pot!!! That is a lot of compression considering the standard high compression 202 runs about 180 to185 psi (I think from memory). I changed my mind when I found this out and relised a standard inlet manifold was left with about 2 mm all round from falling in the head. I am going to pull it apart one day and see what it is really made of. You've got to love a really hot red! 8)

I would be finding a meatier manifold and sticking in a decompression plate, changing the sump and throwing it in.
or if you have a hot red head you could use that.

PM me if you still have the injection and would like to part with it.
