Drivers choice. It depends on the average mean low temp. Ya no wat l mean?
Winter air is available in different temperature ranges to suit your ares. If you live near a latitude line ya may need different ranges front and rear.
Pep boys and JC Whintey have a vast selection of winter air in conveniant cans!

Meanwhile back at the Mt. Top we have been overwhelmed with requests to reveal the hack plumbing solution. Its obvious the suspence is unbearable! Thank you both!
So without further do do...
5 connections all on the trip to the radiator. 2 small ones are on the back.
that eliminated a bunch of hoses and secured the mess.
l want to fire the welder, but then we would have no welder. It has been pressure tested, and proven solid. Please refrain from welding comments!

Beem bogged down with wiring. Old wiring, new wiring, modifided wiring, wiring and mo wiring. I'm getting burned out on wiring.
I have been able to access the on board diagnostic mode. That mode analizes all the switches in the system. Fortunately everything checks out. Unfortunately it still wont run right still.
i need to turn attention to the fuel delivery system. Stay tunrd!
was looking promissing today @ MTL
thought things were looking up when l looked up and saw this.

Changed direction cuz, well just cuz I felt like it. Wiring sucks... after the first 500 hours.
Been thinkin about the rear center section for a while now. Ya know, that thing in the middle with all the spinny things that the chain attaches to.
This being empirical engineering at its wor... ahhhh, I mean finest, the plan won't be decided upon until the plan has actually been completed. Since this is the center section I think the place to start would be the center.
The main axle is 40MM. I need bearing holders, hubs and material. all based on a 40 mm main shaft.
I'll start with the bearing holders, cuz , just cuz. I was done 75% when I thought to take pics.
The material is 4 x 4 x 1 aluminum. 4 bolt holes on a 3.5 inch circle and a 80 mm center hole .690 inch deep. the remaining ..310 has a 55mm hole. the remaining shoulder, 25 mm X .310 yields a .020 "clamp" when the Assembled holder is bolted to the plate on the chassis. Clear as mud? Why MM and 'merican dimensions? Cuz I'm 'merican and that's what we do. MM cuz bearings are metricated.
Here's a pic. Stay tuned you'll see its Purdy simple.
Still in process. there is actually 2 pieces welded together, only to be seperated later. this way there purdymuch identical pieces.

no! Wazzthe diff...
I've looked at that. Interesting aproach. I would be curious to see how it works.
The chassis is is too far along for any departure from the basic design.
A few things about thar are apealing, and afew l dont like.
l hate those pillow block bearings. I prefer normal radial bearings. One of the biggest advantages to radials is l have lots of them left over. AND! As with my selection today a lot of them are ceramic! Toadys selection is 6208C2RS. 40 x 80 x 18 mm
stay tuned as we muddle ahhh l mean master this project.

Never herd of a balance line. Is that something related to the computerized fuel injection? Or are you in uncharted territory? Just curious. Sounds good.

This whole project is uncharted territory!
I still have no idea what a "balance line" is. It's a small vac looking line that connects to a tube that ties all 4 throttle bodies together. I thought it was a fuel return at first, but nothing comes outa it when running.
There is another vac gizmo looking thingy and an "air pressure" sensor thingy.
Still learning this system one piece at a time.
I do consider the latest development a major step forward.

The balance line is to hook up vacuum gauges to balance the carbs.
Oh wait, this is FI.
I bet it tells the confuser the same data and modulates the fuel pulse to make for smoother running.

The balance tube is to equalize the pressures for all the throttle bodies. It helps equalize the flow between cylinders. Chrysler used a version on the long tube crossrams of the late 50s-64. It helps fight reversion also.

Cool, all great theories, but the question remains:
Where does the end of the effen hose go?
Heres a pic:
Pay attention boys and girls cuz these moro.... ahhhh l mean masters can't help without pics!
( insert ha ha emogy thing here cuz it wont work from my lphone 2.
Back to the pic,
The yellow arrow is the TEE in the balance line go? Air box? The pink arrows are looking at the hoses that did go to the air box.
One of them is an air pressure switch of some sort that connects to the fuel rail.
All in all i'm purdy happy to have it running this much. I expected a year or two screwin with the electronice.
Part of the problem is Japanese terminology,nomenclature etc.
Lot of time wasted on "WTF is a xxxx?"
They don't got no gud inglish!

So yeah, why didn't l save the old air box?
I shouldda but the thing was so effen ugly.
No way was i gonna let that sit atop this masterpiece of engineering.
The chassis not the engine....

Try plugging off that hose to the tea (Japanese like their teas). If no change (should not be). Then keep it plugged off. If it runs better open then run it to the new Hack designed masterpiece air box after the filter. You should have kept the air box until you had Igor design and build the new box based off the old one. Time to get it back!!!! Now that I think about it more, that hose could be for a map sensor or something like that???

Plugged or not, makes no difference. Now it only runs for afew seconds.
backwards one big step! WTF? Didnt change anything.....

In my own defense this is the OEM air box. Big enough to sit on top of 4 throttle bodies.

Way back when, ( I think it was on this thread ) I got sort of beat up by mentioning how simple it would be with an old English twin, Amhal carburetors, and a Lucas magnito. After reading over the last 8 posts of today I think that I feel even stronger about my statement. I realize that once sorted out, the engine will perform in ways an old carburaited engine could only dream of. But the sorting out mystery is starting to sound like a horror movie. Hack, I know that you'll eventually get it. Gods speed.
