What you will find here: Intended to display minor modifications to my Westfield SEi, this blog now witnesses the two year rebuild (and more) after a major crash in October 2011. Have fun and feel free to add a comment at the end of any post.

Fuel plumbing - done

The throttle bodies are of DHLA-type, which means two separate double housings. Today I cut the link for both fuel rails and inserted it. The housings are also mechanically linked to operate the throttle and I had to cut the lever to suit my installation. The right housing is at the front of the car where the fuel will enter the fuel rail. Throttle position sensor unmounted from the Dellortos and mounted to the Jenvey throttle bodies ... the principle remains the same, but the TPS has to be recalibrated with the Emerald ECU.
Fuel goes through the rails and is feeded to the injectors, excessive fuel comes out at the end of the rail and goes back to the swirl pot. In between there is the fuel pressure regulator that will be set to 3bar. The FPR is plumbed in and was the last item of a long list. Hopefully fuel plumbing is done now. The check list is rather long with a lot of connections from the tank to the injectors and back.
Cheers.
