Hadn't planned on getting anything before about February so anything before that will be a pleasant surprise.

I'm excited, more so if I had the rest of the money on hand. I'm working OT at work and selling a couple PCs and monitors (one monitor sold...). My Wife of all people wants this in my car. I guess she didn't like being stranded at the gym.

Unbelievable! That's fantastic Charles. I truelly wish I didn't have ants in the pants and buy your twin pump setup thinking I would actually have my car finished before this new fuel product rolled out. You will most likely be working on the second phase of these before I get my car back

Well from what I was told, the parts have finished their surface prepping which was a rather extended journey. They were relocated to the building where they anodize on Thursday. I am under the impression that I can pick these up around Wednesday.
That will be perfect timing for me! My new CNC came in on Monday and I have been working on the 3 phase wiring, air lines, and basic assembly. Tuesday they are coming to activate it. My Z is finally in hibernation at the shop for the winter. So we can do all the final test fitting for the s2 fuel systems and intake manifold prototyping. I was going to wrap up my oil pump product before the intake manifold.. But I am currently just really sucked into the manifold project and I think I can get the production lined up quickly since it will be manufactured 100% in the USA. Ahh everything is falling together for this winter and it feels good. It will be a weight off my shoulders to start shipping these road race pumps to my extremely patient crowd. |

I have an oil pump project in the works. I have all the parts and materials here but I haven't had the chance to sort out the layout to the finished details. This project is competing with a few others for my attention right now. The next week or two will still be consumed with the new CNC mostly, and then I will be ready to start really cranking on my engine build.
If my oil pump goes as planned, it would be something i can show off near spring time. I must say that if it comes to be available, it might disappoint some with how intense the conversion will be. At this point, I believe we are looking at permanent modification to the crankshaft, requiring it to be removed from the engine. But I do believe it will be easy to trust and will eliminate all concerns. |

Do you believe that the stock VVEL heads will handle the increased RPM that you're planning with Oil pump??
Im very interested in intake manifold count me in from now.

That is a question that I share. I don't know of anyone who has really pushed the VVEL system. A parallel question is; do we think there is an engine management option that is both capable of operating the VVEL system while giving us the injection and ignition control features we need to join the high power ranks? I am very close to committing to the switch for HR heads due to both of these questions. I seek a 8000-8500 redline, and that is what I am constructing my oil pump and intake manifold around.
